The surgery took longer than expected yesterday (over 7 hours!) but the
doctors said he did well. He had a slight fever in recovery last night, but
that went away during the night. He is still on pretty strong pain
medication, and he's been pretty cranky today, as you would expect. He's
drinking and holding down formula which is good progress.
In Recovery:
These pictures will break your heart, but my sister sent them and I wanted
to share with you. He'll be wearing casts on his arms to keep him from
moving his fingers so that the skin grafts will grow on his hands. I'm not
sure how long he'll be in them, but you can imagine the difficulties an
active 11-month-old will be facing.
Morning after - drinking with the help of little doggy!
They expect him to be home from the hospital tonight or tomorrow morning if
all goes well today. As the Lord brings him to mind, please continue to
pray for his recovery and for peace in their family.
