Gavin Surgery - September 28 2009

Long time no blog.
Gavin had surgery. Wanted to post some pics for the interested. I've been
good at updating Facebook, but we've seriously slacked on gavinherman.com. Life is busy, and I'm living the reality of my disconncect from home.
Surgery this time went very well. He's amazing. God is amazing. I never dreamed that the surgery would continue to get easier each trip in. As he matures, he's more aware of the pending pain, and it makes it a little more challenging to subject him to it. Also, I have to be cautious, as we're in it for the long-haul, and have to explain the need for surgery in terms of knowing we'll be doing it over and over. God blessed this time, and put it in Gavin's head that he likes the hospital. Gavin kept saying today before leaving, "no, I want to stay in the childrens hospital", crying that we had to leave!

PreOp, being silly w/ Mom.

Sleeping after surgery.




Feeling much better on Tuesday.
