Unexpected surgery.

Yesterday was a slow morning as we on!y had to be at the hospital at 12:30. We arrived and got all checked in. Dr D came in and said that broc did not need to have the lingual tonsilectomy because his sleep study was normal. Great news because then poor Buddy wouldn't be in so much pain and the whole OR time wouldn't be that long.

We grabbed a coffe and headed tonthe wairing room. Ourbname was called 10 min later! What, wait that was fast! Dr D is waiting for us in the consult room. He informed us that the surgery they did in October didnt work. So unfortunately our Buddies day went from a good easy day to a long painful day. A 30 minute procedure turned into a 3 hour procedure.

We finally got to see him that evening. The team did a great job controlling his pain. He has not had break through pain at all. Pain meds every 4 hours will be our plan for the mext couple days.

He had a great restful night. I on the other hand was woken up at 1am as we had to move to the complex airway unit as another kiddo needed to be in the icu. Love that Broc didn't need to be there.

Today he will be having an abdominal CT scan done under anesthesia as new issues have arisen and the GI team would like to help us figire it out. The xray that he had done on Tuesday was very concerning to them.

We will be back in 8 weeks to look at the repair that was done yesterday. We will also be waiting to hear what plan the GI and surgery team have for him.

Thank you for all your love,prayers and support.
