Waiting before surgery.

.

The buzzer that the hospital uses to let us know when we need to check in at the next appointment of the day.

Zeke messing around before surgery waiting for the doctor.

One of the nurses checking Zeke's blood pressure.

We've worked with this nurse before

and I think it's cool that a nurse in a wheelchair helps Zeke!

Gowned up before surgery.

More messing around.

He's telling you that I keep talking too much!

The bear and blanket that he got before surgery

from Child Life at the hospital

The actual technical terms for the procedures he had done.

After surgery

A look at his Robert-Jones cast.

That's the big white cushy cast on his right foot.

They put it on after surgery until the swelling goes down in a few days and they can put on the real cast.

Happily eating pizza the evening of surgery.

He was done with the 4+ hour surgery at 2:30pm

and this was taken at 6:30pm!

Costumed pet show in one of the lobbies last night.

I met a dad there from Mitchell, SD who's little boy was badly burned in hot bathtub water. His sister started the tub and I think their waterheater wasn't working correctly. The little guy is not even 2 years old yet. They've been here a couple of months now. The dad is hoping they'll go home in a few more weeks. Please keep them in your prayers.

Zeke sleeping. They finally decided to give him his meds every 6 hours, so he was able to sleep more last night and so was I.

Hanging out watching cartoons this morning.

The chair I pull out and sleep in.

I won't miss it!
