Tomorrow is Surgery Day -- Originally Published December 19, 2007

Tomorrow is the big day -- surgery at 8AM. Michael is keeping things interesting as usual. Yesterday we confirmed that he was coughing up yellow mucous after every long sleep, including this morning. And, he threw up this morning, more than usual. A quick call to the doctor this morning was in order, and so far there is nothing to stop surgery. We are on watch for more thick mucous and for fevers, but so far so good. Michael is taking so many nebulizers and antibiotics right now that I can't imagine what kind of infection he could be brewing that has survived all this.

The hospital will call today at 1:30 for pre-op check-in stuff. It looks like things are really going to happen.

By this time tomorrow, Michael's wait should be over -- ours, however, will just be beginning. :-)
