We have to go through this again?!?!?!?

Well, everything was going as planned this morning.  Mommy and Daddy got ready as Connor slept.  We woke Connor at 5:30am changed his diaper and left him in his pajamas.  He was still half a sleep when we put him in his car seat.  Connor was great and did not ask for anything to eat or drink.

We got to CHKD in plenty of time, checked in, filled out paperwork, and had Connor’s vitals checked (height, weight, blood pressure, temperature, etc…)  His blood pressure was a little high, but that was probably because he was crying when the nurse touched him each time.  Good thing the nurse didn’t take Mommy and Daddy’s blood pressure because I am sure it would have been off the charts.  We both were starting to get nervous.

We went back out in the waiting room and they said they would come and get us in about 10 minutes.  About 10 minutes later, a nurse comes out and calls for Connor.  We start to stand up to get Connor and she tells us to sit down for a second.  She informs us that they have to cancel the surgery because the doctor has had a family emergency and cannot make it.

So, “Houdini” has escaped his first surgery attempt.  Not sure how Connor manipulated the doctor, but Mommy and Daddy are not looking forward to going through the stress and worrying for a 2nd time.

Since Daddy had the day off, we decided to head up to the Outlet Mall in Williamsburg and do some shopping.  So, we had a very full day which started at 4:30am for Mommy and Daddy.  All 3 of us took a nap in the afternoon for about 1.5 hours.

His surgery will be rescheduled for sometime in April/May.

So continue with your thoughts and prayers as we appreciate that!

Love,

Donnie
