Prayers for Nolton

Thanks for all the support.

Sunday I was eating a hamburger when I felt some pain just above my stomach. It felt like being stabbed. The pain grew but I waited until I couldn't handle anymore. The only decent hospital from me is 40 mins away. I had waited 4 hours before i decided it was time. I drove there and couldnt even stand up. At this time i was vomiting blood. The hospital had an ambulance take me to a hospital an hour away because it was a 3 inch tear in my esophagus just above my stomach. Dr said it is very unusual but not rare.
IV feeding for a week. Liquid diet for 2 weeks after that.
Will be out of work for a minimum of 6 weeks.
This was not a laceration. It was torn.
Wishing you the best.
That must have been SOME burger!

I’ll be more gentle with you next time, glad your feeling better!
 
Day 6 with no food or fluids by mouth. All thu my jugular. Being thirsty as hell and cant drink anything is insane.
Healing is going well but I have developed some respiratory issues. I know I will be here another week so just taking it easy.
