Andrew Update #51

Mud Packer · 8/7/09, 10:53 PM

Just to let everyone know that Andrew had his double surgery today. After waiting out a 7 hour delay due to another patient emergency, they were finally able to start late this afternoon. All went extremely well and amazingly he was discharged to go home yet this evening. Thanks for all who continue to offer encouragement, thoughts and prayers. We appreciate it very much. I have attached a picture of the little guy waiting to be discharged. Thanks.

He continues to amaze me. Throughout this whole ordeal, he has almost always had that infectious smile.

As you can tell, the old man is pretty proud of him.

This is GREAT news. Thanks so much for letting us know. God is SO GOOD!!! We just keep praying and he keeps on answering. Now we pray there will be NO complications of any kind whatsoever and Andrew will heal up VERY quickly so he can be the active little boy he is used to being. You are such a jewel Mike to share all of this with us. What an honor to be on this journey with you and to pray for such a precious little boy!!!
