Eyes and Ears, Oh My!
Marcus had his surgery today. This was the day we have been waiting for. Marcus had his crossed eyes corrected. While he was under he also had tubes put in both ears and a skin tag removed, near his right ear. If only he could have been circumcised too. That is coming later this summer with another doctor in a different facility. Poor guy! The procedures themselves were quick. Just 15 for one and 30 for the other. I was not expecting for Marcus to have such a hard time waking up from the anesthesia. It was not pretty. I felt so sorry for him. He could not get comfortable. We weren't in recovery long before they let us take him home. He slept for two hours then woke up hungry. He hadn't eaten since dinner the night before. I'm surprised he lasted that long. After eating lunch he was ready for another nap. This really wiped him out. He woke up for dinner then went to bed at 7pm for the night. His eyes are blood shot and he has a band aid on the side of his face from were the skin tagged was removed. It's amazing even with the redness in his eyes to see how beautiful they look. The doctor told us it could take weeks for the redness to go away and to see the full results. We are expecting a full recovery!
Thank You to each of you who continue to pray for Marcus and Macey. They are doing just beautifully. Today's surgery is just part of the process of getting them well.
We are blessed!
