Today Chance is going in for his second surgery to get his bandages changed and to check on his progress. Before he went in this morning he was doing well they had turned down his ventilator quite a bit and said that his little lungs are functioning very well on their own, however with all of his surgery's still to come they are likely to keep him on the osolator until all surgeries are finished. They will still leave his little belly open until the cyst that is in his stomache has softened up so that they are able to remove it safely, then they will be able to close him up and we can again begin the recovery process. Chance's surgery went well today, Dr. Myers said that she is supprised and very pleased with how well he is progressing and that she was also able to see where the rupture in his bowel occured and that the scar tissue is beginning to soften. However the cyst is not yet small enough to remove at this time. We have a long journey ahead of us and are only half way there, but know that like the poem footsteps in the sand, our Father in Heaven has carried us every step of the way.

Hey you guys. Your little guy is a cutie. We'll be praying that his surgery goes well! We'll have a little cousin for him come February! Talk to you later.
