Confirmation

So our doctor's office called today and we are set for surgery on Thursday at 10:30. We are anxious and nervous but ready to have it done and over with.  They were able to work out the schedule with their first choice Corneal specialist, so that makes me feel good. Dr. Holz will work on the retina and Dr. Pflugfelder will do the corneal transplant.  It will be about a 2-3 hour surgery. That is going to be difficult for us. All of the previous surgeries have been about 45 minutes to an hour. We will discuss details prior to taking him back. I am hoping they have the wagon again. Last time they got ready to take him back the anesthesiologist pulled him into the room in a wagon. He was pretty excited about that and it certainly calmed our nerves. 

So please be in prayer at 10:30 on Thursday. Pray for these doctors to work a miracle through God for my son.  He will be fine. We know that. On another note, I had predicted that I would probably have to reschedule my Lasix procedure because they would probably want to do surgery for Landon on my surgery date. Well guess what... I was right. I had to move my Lasix procedure back 2 weeks. I've been dreaming of this for weeks now! But that's okay. My baby is worth it. 

Thank you for checking on us, and continue to pray. Pray specifically that his doctor can completely reattach his retina and that Landon's body does not reject the transplant.
We will update as soon as we can.
