David’s Surgery Day is Here

David Alexander

Sometimes when things are planned you think they’ll never ever get here.   Like, it’s so far away in time that it just has to be forever before it gets here.  Wrong.   Time passes by quickly.  The sands stream effortlessly through the hourglass, and the day is (all-of-the-sudden) here.

That day is today.

David’s surgery (for an undescended testicle) is today.   It’s a routine surgery, I’m told, and it is an outpatient one as it is.   Still, it’s surgery.  He’ll be intubated.  He’ll be under general anesthesia.  A surgeon will cut into him and he will experience some form of discomfort afterwards.

To be honest, it scares the living shit out of me.   I will be strong though.  I have to.  Not just for myself, but for that little boy that counts on me to be so.

Prayers, good thoughts, vibes, whatever-whatever is ABSOLUTELY appreciated!

    Hang in there kid. He’ll be fine. Just hope, that with the properly hanging testicle, he doesn’t suddenly drop the tone of his voice and start growing a beard.

    Just kidding. He’ll be fine.

    I understand how hard this is. My son has had nine surgeries and it never, EVER gets any easier. Quite the contrary. I am thinking of you and praying all goes as planned and that he has a speedy recovery.

    I’ll be thinking of little Davey, and you, today. I’m sure he’ll come through with no problem. Be strong!

    Hang in there, mama! Seeing your baby go onto surgery is never easy. I hope it’s over quickly and your sweet baby is back in your arms again!

    I’ve already prayed for Davey today! I’m sure everything will be fine but I totally understand where you are coming from. Emma has been poked and prodded more than any 2 year old should be…one time it took them FOUR FREAKIN’ HOURS to get an IV started on her….11 sticks in different parts of her body. I’ve never been more upset in my life!

    Give Davey hugs from me and teensy kiss on his cheek from Emma!

    hugs hugs hugs and lots of cuddles and smooches for both of you!!!

    We’ve been through that same surgery twice. Any surgery is scary, but it really is routine. Our prayers are with you and David today.

  16. 05.18.2009

    Your family is in our prayers today. ((hugs))

    Mishi-saying a prayer for Davey today that all will go well with surgery and the healing process. Hugs from his playroom friend, Kaia.

    Good luck. It is scary! Our son had surgery at 2 months. I’ve never felt so helpless. Prayers are with you and your family.

  19. You guys have been on my mind ALL. DAY.

    We will be going through a similar day next month with my daughter, Taylor. She is undergoing surgery to repair a hernia. She’s 5 and non verbal autistic. Every passing day finds me getting more nervous, even though we’ve been told that this is a “routine” surgery. Nothing is routine for an autie. =)

    Hugs ?

    Thinking of you and hoping it all went well.

    We’ve got one coming up, but not until July or August, so yeah, that’ll never get here, right???

    Really – how scary. Hoping you all are relaxing now.
