Just to let everyone know that surgery is scheduled for 8:30 am (9:30 Eastern time). Andrew is just sad he can't have breakfast tomorrow. We had a nice dinner at Applebees to end a busy day. After all his appointments today Andrew wanted to go to the St. Louis zoo, so we decided to have a little fun while we were here and bring him to the zoo. His favorite part was the penguins. The weather is beautiful out here... warm & in the high 70s.
Dr. Dobbs said surgery is only an hour long. As long as surgery goes smooth and he comes out of anesthesia well, we should be able to leave the hospital that day. Thankfully since he is not having the multiple surgeries they initially though he was having, we shouldn't have to stay in the hospital overnight. The doctor said that most children do very well and have minimal side effects or pain, so there is no reason he would have to be admitted. Another bit of good news! Now we hope that everything goes smooth tomorrow.
