What Have We Been Up To Today???????

Well we can answer that question with the following pictures:Lots of Nintendo DS playing.....it's a very good distraction for whats to come.


Lots of vitals.....blood pressure, temp, heart rate, etc......

"Lets listen to that ticker!" Can you tell Nathan has had about enough of people in his personal space. LOL!

Lots of cuddling, kisses and prayers!

Lots of laughing at mommy all dressed up to go to the OR with him.


These last two pics are of him on the table in the OR. We had moved on from the DS and were watching a movie on daddy's iTouch. Let me tell you, Scooby Doo was a GREAT distraction from all of the hustle and bustle that was going on in the OR.
This surgery we opted to not take the "yucky" medicine that Nathan despises....it is usually the hardest part of this whole process. It is usually used as an amnesia type drug and it does help relax him but since this is hopefully his last trip to surgery we decided to try it this way.
Let me just tell you....HE DID GREAT!!!! Not one tear, no fighting or fussing about ANYTHING!! Praise God! He shimmied over onto the OR table without blinking an eye and when they put the mask on him to start the "sleeping" process he had no arguments. Once again, I watched my baby boy drift off to sleep, I kissed him night night and walked out of the OR with some tears in my eyes. We can't wait for the next 3 1/2-4 hrs to pass so we can be with him and hopefully heading back to Auburn. Thank you for all of your prayers, calls and text messages....you don't know how much they mean to us.
