In surgery

We just handed the loopy boy over to the anesthesiologists. We have a very good team of people caring for Elijah today. And let me tell you, there is a team! There are lots of people in that operating room today.

We talked to the surgeon for about 2.3 seconds and we discussed none of the surgery, which we both thought was strange. He did tell us about a man who drove into a tornado last night to take pictures, though. Thank goodness we have that information. We are super confident in his skills, but obviously his social skills are lacking a bit.

So now we wait. We will update when we hear news from the OR.

Praying for Elijah today!

It's interesting how some surgeons' social skills tend to be a bit off. As long as you have faith in him in the OR!

1 wk. ago tomorrow, Phill was in the OR at Abbott and A-M & I (also Aaron & Mandy) were in the waiting room. They did another fusion in the vertebrae in his neck. God was with them and all went well. Recovery is slowly coming. We are praying that The Great Physician and the surgeon together bring the solution to the problem.
