So we've said this about the last three surgeries, but we are hoping and praying and thinking positively that this was his last surgery. Let's see where did it all begin...the first one was the bi-lateral hernia repair when he was just 6 weeks old.
Then there was the liver surgery when they thought he had biliary atresia when he was 3 months old (85 days old if we're getting specific). And that one resulted in his gall bladder being removed. I remember thinking how tiny that gall bladder must have been.
Then there was they hydraseal repair at like a year old.
And then the first hypospadius repair at 20 months old.
And now at just over 2 years.....another hypospadius repair. This kid is so resilient! As I'm typing this he is sitting on the loveseat just chilling....watching Sprout. What an amazing little guy!
And little brother, Ben. What a good friend for Alex. They love to play together (most of the time) and thankfully they enjoy the same things (Elmo, cars, going to the park and WAFFLES!) which makes life pretty easy. It's like Ben knows that Alex needs to take it easy because he is being so tender with him. What a sweet boy!
