Surgery

OK so heres the deal. Edward's surgery is tuesday :'( I absolutly don't want him to get his lip fixed because I don't want him to change even though I know he will be just as cute if not cuter after his surgery :'( but still I will be mourning his extra wide smile! ok so here are the details he has to be there at 9 for pre-op stuff and then his surgery will begin at 11am and they are expecting it to be 6 hours long (they are also doing another surgery to fix his manly parts plus ear tubes and an audiology screening while he is out) Here are my prayer requests:
1. he makes it through the surgery fine
2. he can come off of the ventilator quickly (he doesnt do so well with that)
3.that he is not in alot of pain afterwards
4.that David and I make it through this whole thing
5. that we get to come home quick and get back to our normal lives for Edwards sake
6. that Edward doesnt hate me because he has to wear those stupid "no-nos" on his arms for 3 weeks
7that Edward heals quickly

pretty much thats it. they are going to put him in intensive care right after because of his history with problems coming off the vent but hopefully he can get moved to a normal room quickly.


please pray for us! here is one last look at Edward with his extra wide smile

  3. keep us posted-And we will be praying for all three of you as well as the doctors and nurses who will be caring for him. Now you can start thinking about Edward learning to talk and really communicate with you all. You will be happy to see him with a real (normal) smile.
