Surgery Scheduled Today

Monday, May 10, 2010

Cayman's surgery is scheduled for 2:00 today.

Her Neurosurgeon has been trying so hard over the weekend to get it moved up to a much earlier time but they can't accommodate.

He's flying out this afternoon. He'll only be gone for 24 hours. So if they can't get an earlier operating time for her we have the decision to make to wait til tomorrow and her regular Neurosurgeon can perform it when he returns or to stay with the 2:00 time today and have one of the doctor's partners do the surgery. He's assured us that he feels very confident with this other Neurosurgeons. I believe him wholeheartedly but it's just not the same as having your child in the hands of the surgeon you place the most confidence in. The one we know.

We're still hoping and praying that an earlier time will open up this morning.

Ultimately, my peace and trust is in God, the One that can coordinate all these things to go according to his perfect plans.


And I'm pleased to bring you Cayman's latest progress update:

She has returned fully to her baseline. Isn't that amazing? There's nothing she is not doing that she did before all of this. She's sitting herself up in bed and has even taken a few crawling steps once.
