Thank you all so much for your many thoughts and prayers! Logan is home and doing wonderful! Surgery turned out to be a bit more complicated - rather than a 10-15 min. procedure, he was in for 1 hr. 30 mins., but the doctor is very pleased with the final outcome. His entire circumcision had to be re-done - which now means longer recovery - pain and healing, but he is a very strong little boy and doing great! He handled not eating like a champ. He was awake most of the ride to the hospital and then kept the doctors and nurses entertained while we waited. He didn't cry once. The patient scheduled before Logan was late, so they took Logan in at 7:15 am rather than 8am. Perfect! Waking up after the surgery though was a little different... my, oh my! He woke up very grumpy and hungry. They let Bob and I into recovery immediately after surgery and they told us he would be out for awhile, but seemed to wake up almost immediately. He kept trying to get his thumb in his mouth with the blood/oxygen on meter on it and boy, was he ever frustrated. After a bit, they gave him some Glucose water, which of course, didn't quite hit the spot for our hungry lil' guy - so he cried most of his stay in recovery. He slept all the way home - was very happy to see his big sister (greeted her with a big kiss) - just had his first bottle - and is sitting on daddy's lap - a happy little man. We are very relieved this is now behind us. And, we thank God for watching over us today. Thank you all for being such wonderful family and friends. We are truly blessed! Happy New Year! Bob and Lisa
