We found out that Brandon's surgery is towards the end of the day on Wednesday. We have to be at the hospital at 3, but he won't be taken back for surgery until 4:30. One of the hardest things is going to be his food restrictions, but as long as the OR schedule doesn't get too far behind it shouldn't be too bad. He can't have solids aftter midnight, and only clear liquids after 10:30 and nothing after 1:30. The good news is he'll get his first taste of apple juice which I am sure he will love! There are several things that we found out could put a stop to this even at the very last minute, but we are hoping to just get it done at this point (Actually we are both really hoping to get him there and have them tell us that the hernias closed on their own and that he doesn't need surgery at all! But we won't hold our breath.)
Thank you for your continued prayers for Brandon and also for his amazing surgeon Dr. Downey whom we truly love. We'll post more as soon as we can.
