Surgery...once again

Logan had to overcome yet again another surgery. A few days ago Logan had the surgery the hemotologist had been wanting to put off as long as possibe; a tonsillectomy. Many precautions were made by all the doctors involved to make sure that his surgery was a success. We can thankfully say that it was. Prior to the surgery (30 minutes to be exact) he had to be given a blood infusion to help clot his blood during the surgery. The blood was specifically processed to contain only the factor/protein that Logan's blood is missing. Once the surgery began within 30 minutes the second medication to help with the coagulation was administered. This medication we are still giving him 4 times a day for 2 weeks. Once the surgery was over he was wheeled to his room and the recovery began. As of today Logan is doing exceptionally well. Next we will follow up with the ENT post surgery and to determine how we need to treat the polyps found inside his sinus cavity. If these go left untreated then we will be back in the same boat with his sinuses closed.
We are very thankful that this surgery was such a huge success and he is doing so well.

Baby Girl's Room

Sorry it has been some time before posts have been made, but with the progress of getting the baby's room ready the computer was down due to relocating. Over a weeks time Tony taped off the room, painted the base color, taped for the stripes,and painted the stripes. Man, has he been busy. Through the pictures you will see the progress that has been made so far. Still we have to paint the chair railing and then put it up. Once that is completed the furniture will get to go in and then all the fun decorating begins!
