Today we were at Children's for many hours checking everything out with Andrew. He is A-Okay and ready for surgery. It was neat to see how he gradually went from being very afraid of even getting weighed or measuring his head to sitting on the lap of the anesthesiologist just for fun. He warmed up to everyone, it was reassuring to me. He got to see the playroom on the cardiac floor and was excited about it. The facilities there are so nice. We will have or own access to Internet at his bedside so we can keep everyone very closely updated.
The surgeon surprised us with saying most likely 5-6 hrs as opposed to the 8-10 we were originally told. And the stay of 5-7 days, maybe sooner, we thought 8-10 average. If I could only fast forward until this time next week!!!
Here are a couple of pictures we took today. He was sword fighting with tongue depressors. He really had a very fun day.
