Pre-Surgery

Hudson after he got his iv (He's calling it his bobo!)
Having his EKG.

Today has been a very long day for us, but also encouraging in some ways. We arrived this morning at TCH at 7:30. Hudson had a x-ray, EKG, blood work and urine test. We met with several nurses, doctors and other people. Hudson was such an amazing little boy during all of this, only crying during his blood work and when they put the port in for his iv's. We finally got to meet with Dr. Salazar to discuss the surgery. He continually told us that open heart surgery is not to be taken lightly (and he doesn't), but that if he had to rate the surgery it would be a 3 out of 10. The surgery is scheduled for tomorrow at 1:00 pm. Due to the limited space in the waiting room we are requesting that no visitors come during the surgery. Please come after, Hudson will love to see smiling faces! Thank you all for your calls, emails, comments and most of all your prayers! Continue to pray for Hudson, the Doctors and our family.

Stephanie & Bryan -
Strong prayers at every available opportunity are being said for a wonderful outcome from the surgery. Times like these are when our faith is most important - But you already know that. I have several friends who also are praying.
My best -
