Busy Busy Bees!

We are in the middle of a crazy week.

I think it feels extra crazy because Paul has been working 10 days in row (just 2 more to go and then some time off!!!)  But he's tired.  I'm tired.
Stevie is sick of me.

Every day this week, I've been running the tyke around to doctor's appointments.  And we're not done yet.  It's pre-op time again.  We've been through this twice before and surgery ended up being canceled.  (Take One & Take Two) We keep saying third time's the charm!  And it better be.  If I have to fill out the same paperwork again and do all these pre-op visits one more time, I might just accept his crossed eyes as something that adds character.

We're scheduled for Monday morning though.  And so far, so good.  We are all checked in to Children's Hospital so we can go straight to surgical waiting.  No check-in required.  The ophthalmologist did a quick exam and confirmed what procedure we'll be doing (esotropia correction).  The cardiologist gave the all clear.  His heart function and oxygen levels are spectacular.  Even the small leak he still had after OHS #2 corrected itself. Yay!

Now, if he can get through the germ-fest that is his pediatrician's office without catching a cold, we will be golden.

Waiting patiently (?) to see the nurse practitioner at CHLA

Wish us luck!

Good luck!! Hope it goes ahead this time!
My Darcy had esotropia correction on both eyes....the difference in his sight when the op was over was incredible! We didn't know how bad his vision had been until then!
Sending heaps of love and good vibes for your little man, and will be waiting to hear how it all goes!
