Surgery complete!

Cole had his surgery.  The surgeon repaired both hernias and put the feeding tube in.  He had a breathing tube for the surgery but shortly after surgery (as he was fighting the ventilator) they removed the tube:)  He was looking handsome as ever when we got up to see him.  He will be on TPN, which is basically gatorade:)  They will start with formula tomorrow and gradually work him up to full feeds.  Just a few more general discharge items to go after that and we get him!  Just so you're all aware, we will continue the blog even after he is home.  So stay tuned!  Thank you all!

  1. Is the tube in the groin area? Why did they come across the hernias?
