Today's the day that JJ gets his feeding tube opening closed. Luckily it's a fairly quick surgery--should take only about an hour. But they'll still have to put him under general anesthesia and intubate him for a respirator. So we're nervous.
But we're also so glad we got to this point. When he got his feeding tube at 8 weeks old, we had no idea when and if we'd ever be able to get it out. The tube came out last summer, but the hole didn't completely heal up on its own. Today—more than seven years later—closes the chapter on that part of his hypoplastic left heart story! Yeah!
