Ok....well we all settled in to our new routine. Terry was doing fine, growing and happy as could be. Time just ran away. Things just passed us by. We were so into making sure Terry had everything that he needed that before we knew it Terry was 2 months old. He had many many doctors appointments, I swear my second address was CHKD 600 childrens lane norfolk va. We spent so much time there and after a while it got to be second nature. We knew just about every one over there. We were making about 2 or 3 trips a week for the first 4 months.... Then it happened, his surgeon decided it was time for Terry to have the major surgery.... he was to have the PSARP procedure done. so after talking about it we decided to go ahead with it.. I was scared.....to say the least. I mean he was only 4 months old and he had been through so much already. Was he really ready for this? He was admitted to the hospital on December 14,2007, had to do the bowel prep..which was no fun at all! but he smiles through it all. He had surgery on the 15th, they told us it would only take about 4 hours, so we go with our son to the OR, the nurse comes to get him...I cried and didn't want to let go of him. I was so scared that something Would go wrong! typical fear! we sat in the waiting room 2 hours go by they call say he is doing fine, 4 hours go by... another call all was fine, then a huge time gap before the next call... there was a problem, Terrys intestine were rotated, therefore his surgery would take LONGER... are you kidding me! i am loosing my mind now! His surgery lasted 7hours 56 minutes. He had done fine,but the doctor said he would be very sore, he was cut from just about hip to hip and had sutures in his bottom where they "created" his new butt hole.
