Procedures tomorrow

We check in to our house on the hill, same day surgery at 9:30. At least its not 6 or 7. The MRI is scheduled for 11. They will do the MRI and then wheel him accross the hall to nuclear medicine and get a perfusion scan of his lungs. Our Cardiologist is hoping the MRI will also get good pictures of his veins so we can send it to Boston and not need the veinogram.
This is supposed to be a same day thing, but I talked to the nurse today for our pre op stuff and gave her my concerns. She said to bring a bag because it sounds like he will be staying the night. His respitory status being worse and his pressures being so high I just don't know if he'll extubate. We will just pray. So pray for Jax that he does well tomorrow. I will keep you updated on what goes on throughout the day.

Yay for not having to be there at 6 am - I am hoping we don't get that time on Friday either.

Do you need any help with anything tomorrow - please let me know? We'd love to come and visit if you get stuck. We will pray, pray, pray all goes well and that he will be able to be extubated quickly.

We actually rode up this afternoon and met Max - he is so cute and sweet. Hopefully you will be able to see him again tomorrow!

And the pictures of Carter that are black and white with blue shorts are taken with a setting on my camera. You can choose it to accent one color in the picture and everything else will show up in black and white. It is one of my favorite settings. If you want pictures like that let me know and I will gladly take some of Jaxson and your other boys! I think they turn out awesome!

Loves, hugs and prayers!
Kristi and Carter
