We Survived Surgery!


Will had his fundoplication, gastrostomy tube placement, and orchiopexy on Monday. In layman's terms, he had the top of his stomach wrapped around the bottom of his esophagus, a feeding tube placed, and his right testicle tacked down into his scrotum. We were in the hospital for 3 days and got home late this afternoon. Will was so brave and so good. I was just amazed at how well he did. Unless we were moving him (or a nurse or doctor came into the room), he didn't even really cry. I really think that all of the prayers going up for him from all over the world are what are helping him get through this. I am so grateful that God put his strength and peace into Will's little heart and that he guided the doctor's hands in his surgery. Please continue to pray for Will in his recovery and for the rest of us as we deal with all of this. Especially remember Jeremiah because this whole feeding tube thing is freaking him out! I have one week before I have to go back to work, so hopefully Will will be basically back to normal by then. Anyway, more updates to come. Please keep thinking about us and praying for us.
