Biopsy #2

Owen is currently in the cath lab. It was an early morning (and a busy one) trying to gather all his medical "stuff". We had to pack our bags to stay the night as well. Owen was happy until we started messing with him this morning.  He's more anxious about getting those staples out of his chest, than he is the actual biopsy.  At least he'll be under anesthesia and won't remember any of it.

He was less than thrilled to get his wipe down bath with the surgical wipes.. I don't blame him. :(

A little Versed always does the trick and he was insistent on me joining him in the cath lab.  So I got my fun little hazmat suit on.

It's always so fun that they make us dress up before we make the mile long walk to the cath lab.  Nothing like a parade of me in my hazmat suit.  The things we do for our kids. Right? 

Once we got to the cath lab, Owen was also very insistent that I be the one that put him to sleep, so I stood at the head of his bed and held the anesthesia mask on his face while singing to him.  I am adding anesthesiologist to my laundry list of medical degrees that I have earned.  Owen drifted off to dreamland and I had to exit.  Then I tore off all my scrubs, mask, gloves and hat and exited like nothing happened. 

Please pray for a great biopsy and no rejection.
