With a scrubbed body and waiting in his tiny gown.... and waiting....and waiting... and waiting, we were unfortunately bumped from surgery today at 3pm. Tommy's only comment was "feed me now!". The other baby in the operating room is much sicker than Tommy and requires many more hours of surgery today. So, we are scheduled for tomorrow at noon again. The surgeon did say if the current operation goes late into the night, he would be too tired to operate on Tommy tomorrow. We will keep everyone posted here tomorrow as we learn more.
We can feel all the prayers! Thanks to the Eberts for their close thoughts. Thanks to my sister Tami for the "Tommy's heart" necklaces (everyone is wearing them). Thanks to Nora and Dave for taking care of our farm and doggies. Big thanks to grandparents for helping us today. And if Hannah and Nate are reading this .... I MISS YOU both already.
