Well, this week has been a big week for little Parker as he had surgery on Thursday for a hernia. We had to get to Vanderbilt's new Children's hospital at 6 a.m. on the 27th. It was crazy to see how many children were there having various surgeries!! Anyways, everyone was so nice and informative and seemed liked they all really enjoyed their jobs!! He went in at 7:15 and the surgery was supposed to take an hour if they only ended up doing the left side and an hour and half if they ended up doing both sides. Dr. Brock said that 40% of the time if a preemie has a hernia on one side they will have it on the other as well. Well at 8 a.m. they were finished and he did end up doing both sides...I guess he's just quick!! Anyways, we had a great experience!! He really did great!! We ended up having to stay the night just for to make sure he didn't have any apnea spells which he didn't!! So, we came home yesterday and he's just been doing great...he actually seems much more content which is nice!! Thanks to everyone for your prayers as we were so nervous and God was faithful as He always is!!
