Surgery Info

The three of us just got back from meeting with the surgeon.  She is scheduled to have her surgery on Friday, August 27th at 9 am.  We don't know how long she will be in the hospital, but it will be "several days" according to the surgeon.

We did find out that they shouldn't have to make any incisions in Charity, they will be pulling the colon out through the poo hole and then cut and sew it from there.  This will mean no scars for Charity!  The surgery will last 4-6 hours and will be preformed by Dr. Mark Holterman (Bio).  

In the long run, Charity will have to be sure that she stays regular.  That means a diet high in fiber and full of fruits and vegetables (could be worse).  I guess that means she will be one of the healthiest kids around!

Please keep up your thoughts and prayers.  They are truly appreciated!
