PDA surgery...CHECK ✔️

Finally finally finally. We can check this off the list. Ryan had his surgery tonight and it went well. He crushed it... I'm not surprised. We waited very patiently for his turn in line for the surgery, almoat 3 days but who's counting, WE ARE! Wow what a looooong past 3 1/2 days. The surgery team today kept telling our nurse that they would be "right up for Ryan" for 2 hours. The NP said that the entire NICU should give them a standing ovation when they walk in the door. Frustrated mother or just typical Me said " we should just all yell FINALLLLLLLY when they show up. The nurses were pissed off that the OR made us wait since Monday for this. Oh we had some laughs today with the staff. Ryan had the same nurse the past 3 days, Amra, she was so so sweet. She signed up to be his primary if we ever come back or are still there when she is back on next wed. I like it in Boston they have been giving him great care but I want to be back home. She told us it was nice to care for a "normal family." Haha oooooookay. And after being at children's I can see why ;) 

We left Ryan tonight with a ton of finger kisses all over him. We will see you tomorrow sweet sweet boy...

  3. Ryan, you are the strongest little boy I know. You are showing the world that big things do come in small packages! Just know that you have a lot of friends and family you don't even know yet, cheering you on and supporting you, your Mom and Dad! Love, kisses and hugs, Grammie
