Ours told us right before Alex's shunt placement not to worry because it's not like it's brain surgery. It really is a relatively common procedure and you guys will pull through this. Remember that you are not alone and God will be with you three every step. We'll be praying.Nichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00293318746669215009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-5568121913832491122009-03-03T19:37:00.000-05:002009-03-03T19:37:00.000-05:00I accidently posted under my mom's account just no...I accidently posted under my mom's account just now so I deleted it (it would have been confusing. lol) You just keep staying positive! You're little boy is going to be fine and in your arms ready to come back home before you know it. You guys are strong and obviously your little Greyson is too. :) We will say a little prayer for him and his surgery...i'm getting really good at praying for little angel boys. :)Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03622492265953758512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-77348877040617158552009-03-03T19:34:00.000-05:002009-03-03T19:34:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10358099224919318307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-28473604716317916682009-03-03T15:25:00.000-05:002009-03-03T15:25:00.000-05:00We are just behind you on our journey.

He did get the shunt and it is relieving to know that they is a procedure to help him. I am so glad to read about your neuro comments. It must be a universal feeling. Hope that Greyson continues to do very well.Adrienne, Hanna, Hayden & Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14221381922416430783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-1527831686147951142009-03-03T11:50:00.000-05:002009-03-03T11:50:00.000-05:00Andy and Leigh and Greyson, I'm sorry to hear tha...Andy and Leigh and Greyson, I'm sorry to hear that the time for a shunt has come already.

It's funny, but we were told that a few times, too, that it is a "relatively minor surgery". Neurosurgeons are an interesting folk.<BR/><BR/>I've been enjoying reading your updates and seeing Grey's pictures. What a CUTIE!!! I will be sending up a prayer for him (and you both) on Thursday.Rural Felicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895212576898140248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-29362928348337273802009-03-03T07:23:00.000-05:002009-03-03T07:23:00.000-05:00Ohhh, I am sorry to hear that it has to happen.

We will pray for God to guide the neurosurgeons hands and for everything to go well. In the mean time, get as much snuggle time as you can!<BR/>Kathi in HollandMommaKathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01684478057214819361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-831787300917169252009-03-03T07:19:00.000-05:002009-03-03T07:19:00.000-05:00Oh yes, Andy, spitup is now just a fact of life :)...Oh yes, Andy, spitup is now just a fact of life :). As for the neurosurgeon thing, I really think it applies to ALL surgeons! We got sent to Tommy's surgeon when he was six days old thinking he had a hernia. Well, the surgeon came in, felt around, and was like, "its definately not a hernia, its some type of mass, likely cancerous." Said it with a totally straight face, walked out of the room as Tom and I were dumfounded and hysterical at the same time. He ended up being a brilliant surgeon and my feeling is that they have to do such delicate surgeries on such little bodies, all their energy HAS to go to that. There's no brain-powere left for tact or bedside manner, and I'm okay with that. They are incredible at what they do, and Greyson will be in very, very capable hands. We will continue praying for you guys. This will be a distant memory before you know it :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4405591920326937823.post-31126517156476241892009-03-02T22:56:00.000-05:002009-03-02T22:56:00.000-05:00^^sorry, I posted under my husband's name!

It is always hard to hand your sweet baby over to strangers and trust that it is the best thing for them. It really is, though. Yeah, neurosurgeons- we call ours the 10 second doctor because that's the max amount of time we get to talk to him. He's good at what he does though, so I don't care if he has a personality or not.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978186712248507223noreply@blogger.com
