I can't speak for Travis, but I'm getting pretty nervous about the surgery/procedure tomorrow... Anxious to see what they'll find out. The first part will be what they call a "micro L and B". Basically it requires using a little camera to check out the airway and lungs. The second is a gastronomy, where they place a tube in his stomach for feeding and medication. Between the two, it should take about 2- 2 1/2 hours. They'll take him down to anesthesia between 11-12, and the procedure will be around 12:30. We can't believe he's only a month old and already going in for his second big surgery. He's a tough little squirt, but you can't help but feel bad for the little guy. We're trying to hold him lots today, since it'll be awhile until we can get him out of bed. He also has required more blood to prepare for surgery (which is incredibly frustrating because they gave him blood about a week ago... waiting to talk to a doc on why that would be necessary.)
We got more cards today... I think someone was up to something at church.... but we're loving it. We put all our cards up in our room. We get so many that we have to change out our board frequently! We also put one up at the hospital every day.

Thanks for the update and especially the times of surgery, there will be extra prayers for all three of you then... We think that his toughness came in his genes. Both of you need to remember that you are not alone as those cards have reminded you, GOD is in control..
