This day is finally over! Yahoo!
Our little Macks had a hydrocele repair done today up at Primary Children's Hospital.
I won't bother explaining what that is....just google it! ;)-
He was a total champ. I was so worried about him having to fast from midnight last night until his surgery at 11:45 this morning, but he shocked me and did great. He only asked for food once and when I told him the Dr. said he had to wait until after he saw him he simply gave me a long drawn-out, painful, "Ohhhh-tay." And that was that.
Bill and I got some good laughs in the waiting room after he was given some Versed (a sedative to make him all loopy so being taken away from mom and dad and put to sleep isn't such a traumatic experience.) He kept giggling and trying to grab things out of the air that weren't really there, kept saying "Ohhhhhhhh," and rolling his eyes. He couldn't even kept his head up by himself, yet INSISTED on trying to get down and walk around. Bill had to keep telling me to be quiet as I was laughing so hard. We recorded him for a few minutes so hopefully I can get that posted on here tomorrow.
I am thankful for good doctors, modern medicine, and a fabulous Children's Hospital so close. Thank you for everyone that kept him in your thoughts and prayers today. Now...if only I could figure out how to keep him "inactive" for 2 weeks as instructed......hummmmm

Hi Chiara, I'm so glad to hear everything went ok with Macks. Curry's been doing a crappy job of keeping us updated ;) BTW, those are the cutest pre-surgery pictures I've ever seen!
Hey, that is one thing Macks and Everson have in common, they both have had surgery on their balls! Too bad for Everson it is no ball!
I'm so glad my Macks is okay. He's such a stud and has the most innocently happy little spirit and it's contagious. Love love love him.
