Look at my cute cheeks!





Micah has nothing on his face! His surgery went really well which was a huge relief. It was delayed 3 1/2 hours which was no fun... no fun at all. Once he got downstairs, it was 4:45pm. They got him under anesthesia and surgery started about 5:05. They called us back to talk to the doctor at 5:5O. It went SO fast, way faster than the 2 + hours we were told. It went well and the doctor was pleased.

There's a lot of information we'll pass along in the next few days, but what's important is that he's doing well.
We have a few cell phone camera pictures to pass along. He's pretty snockered (I think that's what a nurse called it)... either way, he's completely sedated in these pictures because it was when he just got back... You can see the trach and g tube in one picture. He's got a lot on him in the picture, don't worry most of it's harmless.

  5. Britt and Travis: I am so happy Micah is doing so well. His picture went up on the board at church, so now I'll need a new one so they can see what a handsome young lad he is!! God sees us through so many things but he gave this task to a fantastic couple and He will see you through.
    Love you, Aunt Janice
