Surgery

I can't believe that TOMORROW Austin has his fundoplication stomach surgery!  My nerves are beginning to set in.  At a bright 5:45 am we'll be at DC Children's Hospital.  The procedure is 4 1/2 hours long and we'll be with Austin 5 nights and will come home Sunday.  We know that he is being watched out over and that the surgery will go just fine and that this is something that needs to be done so he can just concentrate on having fun and being a kid!


We want to THANK all of you for your prayers, thoughts, emails, calls and love that we've felt from you.  It's times like this that we feel strengthened and buoyed by the support and strength of our family and dear friends. 

I'll keep you posted on how things go.  Please continue the prayers!

Please let me know how I can help!! We have been praying for you and worrying for your little guy!! I guess I thought the surgery was on the 5th so I kept thinking you all would be home on the 10th. Glad I know the new date. I'm sure he will do great!! Hang in their Austin!!

Oh Angie, please know that we are praying for the best outcome possible for Austin. Cameron kept trying to call last night to talk to him, but the phone was busy. I can't wait to hear how everything went and please let me know if you need anything!
