This one goes out to Ryan's NICU team back home

Vent session/post::::

Well today was fun....not. We are down at Boston Children's Hospital. We came down yesterday afternoon and have been lucky enough to stay with my uncle for a few nights. Ryan was supposed to have his heart ligation surgery today. We waited alllllllll day for a time. We thought for sure it would be today since that's what we were told. It started with "oh he will be the first case so that's why we are calling you at 2am for your consent for the surgery... sorry to call so late" to " we still don't have a time" and then at 4:15pm we got the lovely " so the surgeon just called and they can't get him in today. An emergency surgery came up and pushed him to POSSIBLY tomorrow." Awesome! Well Shawn and I enjoyed the view in the main lobby of the hospital for about 5 hours today since we can't stand in Ryan's room all day otherwise our legs would fall off. There isn't much of a family room but two or three uncomfortable chairs up against the wall.  

Ryan is doing well but he misses his team. The nurses here so far have passed the Andrea test and have been great but still no one beats his team back home. Ryan (and Shawn and I) miss you all. It's not private here, everyone is moving a million miles a minute and they just haven't been with Ryan for the past 30 days. We can't wait to get back to our home away from home!

 Love from Boston
Andrea Shawn and Ryan
