Surgery Day

We handed off Graysen to the anesthesiologists at about 6:30 this morning. They gave him a mild sedative to relax him, bundled him into a warm blanket, and took him back to surgery. Graysen was oblivious to it all, probably unaware that he had more in store for him than the usual poking and prodding that he's used to from doctors.

We had to get up at 3:30 to get ready to go to MUSC, so we're a bit tired. We ate some breakfast in the MUSC cafeteria and have been trying to entertain ourselves sitting in the PCICU waiting room.

We were given a pager with which the surgical staff will send us updates about the progress of the surgery. We plan to share the information here as it becomes available.
