Colson- surgery day

Last week we had an MRI on the dermoid cyst above Colson's left eye.  The MRI was a stressful process since he had to be put under anesthesia for the imaging.  We had it done at Dell Children's and everyone was great.  Jared took the job of handing Colson over to the nurse at the end of the hallway.  Colson cried and was grabbing for his Daddy- HARD. TO. HANDLE.

Praise the Lord the results came back saying the cyst was not connected to anything, so we were free to have it removed.  Since Colson has had at least 7 ear infections he needed tubes, so today was the big day.


My wonderful mother came to keep both the girls while Jared and I took Colson to the surgery center. We were not looking forward to today, but the Lord had his hand over Colson and it all went great!  He left with the nurse without a peep and was gone for about an hour and a half.  We he came back to the recovery room where we were he chugged apple juice from a bottle and was pretty sleepy and content- at least compared to how he came out of the MRI, crying and restless.  Now we are praying these tubes are the solution to fix his ears and we are so thankful the cyst was nothing more!
