Post op day 1.

Broc and I had a quiet night except for his fevers and vomiting. He ran a fever all night, then it would break with Tylenol stay down for about half an hour then start going back up again. The vomiting is so sad to see. We are going to have to buy him another frog pillow pet. Unfortunately we could not save it. We also lost a small frog in the mix too so we are hoping that child life will have a similar frog to replace it because Broc knows what all his frogs look like and will know if one of them are missing.

Right now it's 5:30am and his fever is climbing. We are waiting for 7:30 to come so we can give him another dose of  Tylenol. He is being so good and so polite. Not looking forward to getting him up and walking today. I will have to put on a brave face for him cause mommy just wants to hold him tight and take all his pain away.

Once the Drs round we will have a plan for the day. Thank you for all your love and prayers.

Last surgery update

Broc is done. Dr Boaz came out to talk to us. He said everything went as well as can be expected. Due to his reaction with his leg bypass surgery to the patch they used a synthetic material for the patch so we are really hoping for no adverse reactions.

They only had to take off C1 and left C2. His said they were really careful to even leave the muscle attached to C2 to give it more stability. He will spend the night in PICU so they can monitor his pain more carefully without having breathing issues.

We are hoping for a good nights sleep with no adverse reactions.
