We are still on for surgery tomorrow at 1:30. The surgeons have stopped the re-feeds and will be turning off his regular feeds tonight at midnight. He is going to be one hungry boy by the time they are ready to start. This is probably a good thing, I would assume that he has not felt hunger for some time, since his feeds have been continuous, always keeping something in his belly.
The surgeon said that when he comes back from surgery tomorrow he will probably look pretty puffy and be out of it for a couple days. It has also been said that depending on how things go, and Kade's history, we may end up in the PICU for a day or so afterwards to keep a close eye on him. That is fine with us, we love the nurses and doctors down there!
We had a pretty good night of rest with some long stretches good sleep. Today, we will probably be taking extra wagon rides to hold us over until after Kade is feeling better from surgery. He did eat some more puffs this morning, and enjoys sitting in the highchair.
We pray for the surgery team and staff, may their skill and knowledge continue to help our boy get well, and of course for our Mr. Kade, that his little boy continues to be strong and heal so that we may all be back together under one roof soon.
