Getting the News

Today was a heavy day. This afternoon we learned that Liam will have surgery on Thursday. We're not sure what time of day, or any other details at this time. We do know that tomorrow will be a busy day of "pre-op" stuff - echocardiograms, EKGs, meetings with the anesthesiologist and the surgical team. This is all stuff we knew would come, but can never prepare for mentally until the day actually arrives and you have to just deal with it. Thankfully Liam is comfortable, he's eating well and he is ready for surgery. As you can see, Liam is well at ease withe the prospect of open heart surgery. His mother and father will surely have two very long days and nights waiting for surgery.

 
Please keep Liam in your thoughts and prayers.
