It's 9:30, and based on the most recent update in the waiting room, he's been in the procedure for about an hour. They said 90 minutes...so we hope to hear he's been moved to recovery about 10 am. They want to get us in there as soon as possible to help keep him relaxed as he comes out of anesthesia. I'm sure it's weird and it probably feels icky.
Only one of us can go back to recovery. I'm electing Chris but he doesn't know it yet. I don't really like seeing Mason uncomfortable and since I'm the one spending the first night with him in ICU I figure its only fair. ;)
Now I'm trying to decide if I should try to get the cafeteria to see what food is left from breakfast or if I should make my stomach wait it out for lunch...random thoughts from a hungry mom.
Also, a quick note I wanted to jot down on the blog for those of you not on Facebook...
We have received so many gracious emails/calls/letters of support to help us get Mason that freedom bike. If you missed the post, read it here. We figured we might as well make some progress with things since we're here so we'll call the therapists later today to see if we can get an update on the quote. We are so excited that this is going to happen. I hope that once its ordered, and paid for, that we can get it by August so that Mason can still enjoy it this summer! For those wondering, this bike should last Mason 4-5 years. Our plan is to "re-gift" it to another family once Mason outgrows it. It's obvious that this piece of equipment is a want, not a need, but we appreciate everyone's support in helping us obtain something that Mason will truly enjoy! We can't wait to show you all pictures of him cruising around on it!
We'll try to get some pics of Mason once he's awake and back to his happy self.
