We received confirmation that Gus will need the PDA Ligation surgery. He is scheduled for the surgery at 10:30am on Wednesday morning, March 8, 2006. The whole procedure is only supposed to take about 15 minutes, but the preparation and recovery will be at least 24 hours. We know this is best for Gus, but it is so hard to see him have to undergo any more suffering or pain. My heart just hurts to think of it...
Gus is back up to his birth weight 1 lb 12.25 oz, gaining 2.5 oz yesterday alone! Please pray for a great outcome for Gus' surgery, his doctors and nurses, perseverance for Jill and me, and continued growth and strength for the big guy. He is truly amazing and a miracle to us.
Blessings,
Gregg, Jill and Gus
