Noah had his urology surgery today. They originally thought at birth that he had a hypospadius and a chordee so they did not circumsize him. They wanted to wait until he was over a year old to correct it. The surgery went very smoothly. He did not have a hypospadius but a torsion of the penis and chordee, which they repaired and did his circumcision as well. He had a cold the two weeks prior, so we were worried that they would not take him, but praise the Lord, his symptoms disappeard the morning of surgery! exaclty what I was praying for! (they did, however, return after surgery!) He did very well with not eating or drinking the morning of surgery. I felt so bad, we fed him so much the night before that ended up throwing up after having a coughing jag. He did very well in the morning, sleeping late as planned and leaving on time. Noah played and was in a pretty good mood in the preop area. They did not take him in until 11am, so that was a long morning with no breakfast or anything to drink. He did very well in surgery and it was quick and smooth. We got to see him at noon in pacu and he drank 14 oz over the next hour. The dr discharged him and we went home. He is in pretty good spirits! The night after surgery was a little tough to get him to go to sleep, but once he was sleeping, he was fine. I was very happy with how CCMC handled everything!
