Day 2 post G-tube surgery

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the special prayers and fasting. So far surgery looks successful. Hayden has been tired and taking his pain medicine and watching Thomas the Train DVDs. He has been cheered up by the many videos and pictures that he's been receiving from so many caring friends.

Thank you also to our friends Robyn and Michelle for taking Hanna overnight while Hayden went into surgery and made it such a fun slumber party play date for her.

Today Hayden was able to eat from mouth and from his G-tube. The first thing he ate was two bowls of chocolate ice cream and barbecue potato chips.

We are also thrilled that we've had the opportunity to stay at the Ronald McDonald house for this hospital visit making it so much better for our family.

The family that served breakfast at the Ronald McDonald house today started off the day with a wonderful prayer in memory of their nephew they had lost to cancer.

Hanna and Garrett both feel big that they get their own bed at the Ronald McDonald House.

The surgeon said that I had positively diagnosed Hayden with Aerophasia. The G-tube allows for air to vent from his stomach so it looks like he might enjoy eating once again!

  1. Wow Adrienne, you are all troopers! It all sounds so stressful and exhausting but must be a relief they are able to help your sweet boy. I can't imagine the burden on your shoulders along with raising 2 other children and everything else. I will say huge prayers that you will continue to receive the grace you need to get you through. You are such an example to me!
