Surgery




 Last Sunday I called the surgeon's cell phone and told him that Roman was all better from his cold and ear infection and could we please do the surgery tomorrow.  He was very accommodating and scheduled Roman's hernia operation for 9am Monday morning.  Roman and I went to the hospital at 7 on Sunday night and they did blood work and put an IV in his arm.


 They also put this adorable gown on him.  He loved the room with all the buttons on the bed and the TV remote:)
 The surgery went very well.
 He woke up from the surgery cranky, but was fine after a good nap and some french fries from McDonalds:)
 His big brother sister came to cheer him up and watch TV:)

We were able to leave on Monday evening and I was very glad for that.  Sharing a hospital bed with a 2 year old is not my idea of a fun time:)  Thank you to all who were praying for Roman.  We are so thankful that everything went smoothly and he's back to normal.  Praise the Lord!

I am so happy that it turned out alright. I bet those toys helped him when he was recovering. I am glad you were able to bring them in for him after the surgery.
