Lee and I are doing well. We are still hoping for surgery tomorrow. As far as we know, Graysen is still on the schedule for tomorrow morning. However, we have not spoken to the surgeon yet. He speaks to the parents the day before surgery. Nothing is confirmed until he speaks to us. Hopefully we will hear from him this afternoon.
Graysen is doing OK. He had five episodes in two hours where he stopped breathing yesterday. They put him on forced air which is helping. He will be put on a respirator if the episodes continue. I was glad to see that they did not have to put him on a respirator last night. They had warned us that they may have to do so. Babies that are not on respirators before surgery do better after surgery. They do not become as dependent on it and the doctors are able to remove life support earlier than babies who are on a respirator before surgery. I am hoping that he will make it through the night without one so that he can go into surgery strong.
So, we are still waiting. I am hoping that he can start his road to recovery tomorrow.
