We survived yet another surgery. The surgery was performed an hour later than scheduled because the nurse at the doctors office told us (and a handful of other families that were there) that our kids had to stop eating 4 hours prior to surgery. Well, she was wrong........it was 6 hours prior. They had to bump everyone's surgeries back so that the kiddos belly's would be empty. Not a big deal.....John just napped! Anyhow, the surgery was fairly quick. We will not know for another month if he will need a second surgery. Please pray that he won't. He has been very uncomfortable. He cried from 4:00-6:30 and then finally fell asleep. He still hasn't opened his eyes. His left eye is bleeding a lot......we were warned about that. It's just so hard to see your baby in pain. Hopefully tomorrow he'll be feeling much better.
Thank you all for your kind words regarding yesterdays post. I feel so blessed to have so many wonderful friends and family in my life. I honestly don't know how I would survive without all of you.

Saying many prayers that John is feeling better soon and that the pain is easily managed... poor little guy, he should never ever have to be in pain again :(
You are in my thoughts.
I remember looking at my girls after their eye surgeries. I hated seeing them bleed from their eyes. It hurt looking at them.
Was it the laser surgery they had done on him?
How many lasers did he have?
My Alyssa ended up needing a scleral buckle put on her eyeball during Christmas time right before her 1 year birthday.
It's hard to see that stuff sometimes.
John's so amazing, though.
What a fighter you have!
