Michael's surgery

It was decided that Michael had a hernia that needed to be repaired and a couple of other little boy issues. It is always hard to see your little one being wheeled away for surgery, not matter how minor it may be, but we trusted God would see him through. He did really well, and only had a nausea for a little while after surgery. The facility we were at took great care of all us.


Mikey before surgery insisting that the "happy juice" they gave him wasn't making him silly. You be the judge of it.


Right after surgery, obviously not very happy. We thought it was pretty cute that the doctor dressed Mikey's Mickey Mouse up for surgery, Mikey wasn't as impressed and asked for us to take them off. At that moment, I don't think anything would make him happy except getting the IV and other lines off.


Doing a little better and was pretty excited to be pushed in a wheelchair.


Mikey hanging out with Matthew and Cole the day after the surgery. It will be a long two weeks keeping this one down. He wanted to get up move the day of surgery and was already asking to jump on the trampoline two days after surgery. Two weeks seems like eternity to a 6 year old (and his parents)!
