Surgery Day

We arrived at the hospital at 6am. We went straight to pre-op and watched Cars while snuggling our little man. The nurse asked about his medical history. We gave him some happy drugs. Then, the anesthesia team wheeled him back to the OR. He said "it otay" and "love u"! He was chatting with the OR docs as he was wheeling off with them.

Carson and I are sitting in the surgical waiting area. Dr Hanley will come talk to us in a bit, before making his way to the OR. The OR nurse just brought us Owen's snorty and bink and told us he is fully intubated. He's getting his ART line in his wrist, his central line in his neck, and several more IV's lines in his arms and legs.

Dr Hanley, after speaking with us, will go to the OR and start the procedure. We'll keep you posted.

Thank you for your prayers!!!
