So today was surgery day. We stayed last night at Ronald MacDonald house to make things easier. Somehow this didn't make us feel any more prepared. Surgery days are harder now, not that they were ever easy. Ben now understands that something is up on these days even if he doesn't really understand what is going to happen.
He was such a brave boy and walked himself back to surgery with his giraffe named Bear and his doll named Baby.
The recovery room was a nightmare this time. Ben was angry and in pain and screamed for all he was worth. We spent much of an hour passing him back and forth between Ashley and myself and in the end he settled when Harry came in to watch cartoons with him.
We are settle up in 771 and hopefully Ben will continue to eat and drink so we can get out of here. So far so good, fingers crossed it continues!
