Surgery date set . . .. 4/10/08

So, Children's Hospital called today and we now have a date on the calendar set for Cooper's replacement pacemaker surgery. It will be on Thursday April 10th at 11:30 a.m. The surgery will take between 2-3 hours and we have to decide before then whether or not to take the old one out in his abdomen or just turn it off. It will be nice to not have to be there before the sun comes up, but not eating at all before that will not be easy for my hungry hippo. :( We will meet with the surgeon sometime before then to talk about the logistics. We wanted to do the surgery the week of or before our Spring Break, but no dice. Coop is ok with it because he thinks missing school is A-OK! He will be in the hospital one to two nights and has already tried convincing me that he needs a Wii for his rehab. :)
