Seth's Surgery

Seth had his back surgery on monday. I have to admit that I still wonder if we made the right choice. When considering quality of life vs. quantity, there is such a fine line as far as Seth is concerned. We are very laid back and have always wanted Seth to be completely comfortable and happy. With his teenage growth spurts, his little back had become so bent that his organs were being squished. He couldn't chug his bottle in 3.2 seconds anymore and his coughs had become very weak. After so much talking, searching and prayer, we decided this was the best choice. As they pushed him away on monday morning, it was all I could do to not chase them down and tell the we had changed our minds. After 4 1/2 hours in surgery, they put our little humpty dumpty back together again. They have him in ICU and even though they are really sweet up there, I will be anxious to get him in his own room. Hopefully this afternoon. He is doing as expected. Pain is our biggest issue and so far it has been OK. My biggest worry is when I take him home. I am so scared!!! Please keep him in your prayers and I love you!!!
