We just got an update from Dr. Tse that surgery is done and everything
went fairly well. Sounds like things took a little longer than they initially
thought, but it was a success.
I think he just wants to make sure we aren’t surprised, but
he did comment that Matthew looks quite a lot different than he did before. I’m
not exactly sure what that means, or whether that’s good or bad, so I think
both Aaron and I are a little anxious to see him, although it will also be SO
good to see him and hold him.
We have about another hour until he’s out of recovery (more
waiting) so we’re just hanging out in the kids playroom with Maya and Sam until
we get the page. Can’t wait to see our boy, but I’m also SO glad he’s through
surgery and starting to recover.
And boy, will that kid be hungry when he finally comes to!
Phew! Glad the intense part of waiting is over and excited you get to see him soon. And glad your whole family is there together. Did you get the sense that Dr. Tse says that to all parents after serious reconstructive surgery? I wonder if it will be hard to tell what he'll look like anyways with all the stitches and possible swelling?? Either way, that kid has an amazing smile and this surgery just made him healthier. Sending so much love...
