We are getting ready to take a new step in this adventure called life. In two weeks from today, May 28, 2006, our family will travel to Palo Alto, CA for Jason to undergo his heart surgery. The surgery will take place on June 14th, early in the morning, and last 6-8 hours. We will stay down there for the better part of two weeks and are planning to come home June 26th. Cole and Spencer will join us so that we can all be together as a family. Once Jason is out of surgery and we know that everything is going great on his road to recovery Cole will go home with my parents to return to Bend, OR. Spencer will stay with us since he is just 10 months old and his mommy can't be away from him for that long. Jason's family, including all brother's, sister, and in-laws will be joining us as well as both of our parents.
There is definitely a lot of anxious anticipation for the actual surgery to take place. We are all coping the best we can, letting go of fear and worry as it comes along, trying to spend as much together as a family as we can, and making sure we don't take any of our moments together for granted. We know that God has us in His hands and that He is the one holding us together right now. Some days there are more moments of feeling scared and wondering what would happen if something went wrong. Then there are moments of hope and anticipation of what is to come in the months and years to come.
We will be posting updated information on this site as we get nearer to the surgery date and forward. We are trying to keep one main spot for those interested to get information from without having to go through a login process. Please bear with us as we are figuring out how to make the best use of our webspot.
