Hey Everyone,
This is the week I have been dreading. Wednesday morning @ 7:30 AM central, could you all say a prayer for DFS13 as he undergoes his spinal fusion? I would truly appreciate the prayers at this time. My emotions have been playing up all weekend and are getting worse the closer to surgery we come. I will try my hardest to keep everyone updated throughout the day. I have heard the surgery will take 5 hours minimum and up to 10 hours. They are fusing his whole back. Prayers also his cancerous tumor is gone and has not started to regrow. I should have internet access in the waiting room and I will have my cell phone on me.
Oh, what a week this will be!
Deb (of the MarvDeb)

DFS13 is in surgery at this time. Surgery could be up to 10 hours long. I will keep posting updates when I hear about them. So far no updates from anyone, since we had our final hugs and kisses before surgery.

I am praying for DFS and you to be strong thru this. I have had 2 fusions done on my cervical spine and can only imagine how he will feel after having his whole spine done. Be there for him. He will really need you, all of you. Love, hugs and kisses my friend. |

Surgery offically started at 8:23 AM central time. They had to start two central lines and make sure they had blood on hold in the blood bank. They also had to start a third IV to adminiter the sedation medication, after putting him to sleep with gas. This really has not helped my stress level. Poor kiddo has 3 IVS and hates them because he is ultra sensitive to pain. No update yet, since that one and we had to ask for that update. 3 hours into surgery  . I'll be happy when this is done and I can see him/hold him. |

DFS13 is out of surgery and we are in PICU. He is on 2L of oxygen at this time to help keep his levels up and to help him rest easier. He has just awaken and asked for some water and is now watching some television. This is a good sign and eventually they are going to wean him off the oxygen. Tomorrow we start Physical therapy again and that will be hard. He is swollen right now and they said it will get worse before it gets better. Over all, at least I know my sweet pea is awake and responsive.
