Shunt Surgery In Progress

Waiting.

Bah.

I very much dislike waiting. 

I made us wait a month for this surgery for a few reasons (scheduled Pam, sleep study, Easter...), we spent the night across the street from the hospital at the Ronald McDonald House.

But now we're here.  At A.I. DuPont Hospital for Children.  Waiting. 

What are we waiting for momma? (Look at those shocked eyes!)

We waited for pre op (at 6:30 in the morning so pardon all of the exhausted faces)..,

We waited in pre op.

Sesame Street helps to pass the time. 

We played while we waited. 

But then it was time to be separated. 

Before we knew it, he was on his way to surgery...

And now we wait for our baby, separated from our baby, from our heart.

We've already received one update, surgery has begun and there is a slight change in plans- his shunt will be placed on the left side of his head instead of his right like planned. 

We're so appreciative of the love, messages, and prayers we've received.  Please keep those prayers coming.
