Just to inform/remind you all, Lucas is scheduled for surgery this Wednesday to correct his hypospadias. We don't have confirmation yet on the exact time, but we were told it'll be around 8am. It is an outpatient procedure and typically takes around 3 1/2 hours. He'll have a catheter for a couple weeks after to allow the created urethra to heal. Dr. Austin, the urologist, said that babies don't notice the catheter though; it doesn't cause them any discomfort. That's a relief to us. We hate to have him suffer anymore.
We'll reassure you all after the surgery that "all went well and Lucas is doing great", I'm sure. Thank you eternally for your prayers and love for this amazing little boy who doesn't like rice cereal and thinks it's funny to spit on his dad.
Oh and to update you all on another matter, Lucas was approved for vision therapy! He will have an assessment on December 6th and the amount/frequency of therapy will be determined based on the evaluation. (Thank you, God and thank you Dr. Lueder!)
