We were notified today that Hanna's surgery is scheduled for 12:30 on Monday. We are to arrive at UNC at 10:45. Davis has a field trip that day, so it's a big day for everyone!
Here's the kicker, but no surprise to those who have been hospitalized before, Hanna can't eat anything prior to surgery- translation: That's half a day! This from a little girl, who has a very healthy appetite. It's not unusual for her to wake up, run into our room and asks for a snack first thing in the morning (assuming she wasn't already in our bed from waking up in the middle of the night and in that case she rolls over and asks...).
She will have to stay overnight but hopefully will be released the next morning. This will be just to be sure she doesn't have any airway swelling as a result of the surgery. Please pray for a speedy recovery! I dread the thought of her being in any pain...
While there is some dread looking into next week, I feel its prudent to remember that today is Good Friday and as far as I am concerned, the most important day in history. The day Jesus died on the cross so that we would be saved and our sins washed away.
