It's two days until Chloe's surgery. It seems like everything is falling into place. I have had numerous phone calls from Cook's Hospital getting all the details arranged: pre-registration, insurance and pre-op. Tomorrow they will call to notify us of our arrival time. Our nanny will be helping with Caleb Thursday night and getting him to school on Friday. Also, Caleb has some awesome friends who are going to come and pick him up to play on Saturday to give him a break. Thanks Reese and Greg!
Caleb is very concerned about Chloe and her upcoming surgery. When I picked Caleb up from school today he seemed a little depressed. I asked him what was wrong and he said nothing but continued to be sad. I asked him if something happened at school and he said no. Then with tears in his eyes he told me he was sad about Chloe's surgery. He said she was perfect the way she was and he did not want her to have surgery. He was worried about her being in pain and I told him we would give her pain medication which I think made him feel better. He was truly upset. We were at Target, so I suggested he buy her a gift to take to her in the hospital and I think that made him feel better too. What a sensitive boy. He loves his sister very deeply.
So I guess the next time I post her surgery will be done. We can't wait to see her new smile!
Caleb contiues to be a miracle...we are so lucky to even know him. He is one of God's Greatest creations.
