almost done

OR Nurse just called.  Everything is going absolutely perfect.  No hang ups.  They are closing.  Have been for a while.  Should be done in one hour.  A lot to close up I guess.   Kaeffer should come talk to us around 11:45.   Then we'll be see him in recovery shortly after that.

Probably won't update for a while after that... will be taking care of Owen, moving to the floor, answering the check-in questions, yadda yadda yadda... oh, yeah, and hopefully sleeping!

A friend Kelly (Nate's wife) came by after work.  Nice to have conversation to distract.

Neil (Eric'a dad) left around 9:00.  

Eric is just going to stay the night again at this point.

He and I moved everything into the new room on the 9th floor between OR calls.  Once less thing to do after they leave us alone tonight.

Can you believe it... I think it is the EXACT same room we had last March for tethered cord surgery.  feels like home!  ha!

Thankful beyond measure for all the love and support you all have shown us.  Completely blown away by all the sweet notes, prayers and texts.   We are truly blessed to have each of you in our lives.

love,

Eric & Jen

    Still praying... you've been on my mind all day. Your "don't miss it" post is hit the nail on the head awesome! I feel like we've been there too... like everything we go through big or small - it's not about us... so not about us. It's all HIM. He leads, He guides and we follow Him through. That's the only way we get through it, when we follow HIM. He is doing BIG things through Owen, through you, through your family. Praying for the next steps in the post surgery and recovery process.

    Praying for Owen and for the Lord to continue to guide the doctors' hands. I hope you get a chance to sleep as well, and that Owen isn't in too much pain as the next few days progress.
