Ulcers are flaring up

Not an emergency, but I wanted to let you know what’s going on with Jeremy. Earlier today he threw up a significant amount of blood, and the doctors believe his ulcer has flared up pretty badly again. It was definitely scary to see, but thankfully the medical team responded very quickly and has been monitoring him closely ever since.

They’re planning to do a scope so they can get a better look at the ulcers and determine exactly where the bleeding is coming from. Most likely they will do an ablation procedure during the scope to help stop the bleeding and help the ulcers heal faster. Right now they seem optimistic that this will help get things under control.

Thankfully Sissy was in the restroom when everything happened and didn’t see the blood, which I’m honestly very grateful for because it was a pretty upsetting situation. Jeremy is exhausted and uncomfortable, but he’s being cared for and they are taking this very seriously.

I’ll continue to keep everyone updated as we know more. Thank you all again for the prayers, support, and kindness through all of this. It truly means a lot to us.

Hey Joel… that’s really scary, I’m so sorry you all had to go through that. I can’t even imagine how hard it was to see. I’m really glad the doctors acted fast and are on top of it.

I’m relieved Sissy didn’t see it, and it sounds like Jeremy is in the best hands right now. Hoping the scope helps get everything under control quickly.

We’re all here for you, truly. You’re not carrying this alone. Keep us posted when you can

@VersesAndBruises it's okay. I think them doing an ablation to help it heal will be good for him.

Thankfully they gave him so meds to help him relax and he's asleep.
