Verdict Is In

We traveled to a Children's Hospital clinic this morning and met with the surgeon who we liked very much and so did Colin! She explained that yes he does have a hernia on one side, yes it needs to be repaired surgically, and yes that means general anesthesia again...she is only repairing one side, it's day surgery, and it's a fairly quick procedure (1-1/2 hours)...After seeing parents with their kids today carrying files upon files of medical records, I kept telling myself it's a routine procedure, it's just a hernia, and we are very lucky it's nothing more serious or chronic!

How nerve racking...but you have the right attitude! When is it? We'll be thinking of you all! Colin is a trooper! Take Care Amy

Thinking of you. I am so sorry you have to go through this. We do have a lot to be thankful for, seeing stuff like that really makes it seem a bit easier. Keep us posted.
