Big Day Tomorrow

Well, I'm back blogging so that means that the big day draws near. Very near in fact, things begin around 10am pst tomorrow (Friday, 6/4) and will last in the neighborhood of 7-8 hours (+/- a few). Emotions are free flowing at this point. Everything from anxiety and fear to relief and anticipation are running rampant. We are confident that we chose the right doctors to do this and do it very well, so we know things will be okay but it still brain surgery which is scary any way you look at it. The wait has been painstaking though (we've known since the beginning of March) and we're ready to be on the recovery side now.

Since the last time I wrote we've moved over to the dormitory attached to St. Vincent's Hospital. It's not much in the way of fancy, but it gets the job done for a very reasonable price. The proximity to Dr. Appt's and the hospital is second to none, and we've been fortunate to have met a lot of nice and amazing people while we've been here. Also, big bonus my Mom came to town on Tuesday so we've got reinforcements to help out while Kris is laid up.

Parker is doing very well. He had his 2 week check up and he's weighing in up over his birth weight now, which is excellent, and no issues what so ever with anything health related either. He eats, sleeps and poops like a champ so we're extremely happy and fortunate parents.

I'll be updating as much as possible tomorrow during and after the surgery, as I know there are many people that have expressed interest in hearing how things are going. Till then....

  1. We are all praying for Kris back here in Wisconsin. She is so lucky to have a wonderful husband like you, Mike.
