Out of Surgery #2

Surgery #2 was successful - Dr. Rast repaired a leaking blood vessel and got Greyson in and out of surgery and back to his room within 3 hours. He has lost an ounce or so of blood and his blood count is low but Dr. Rast didn't want to give him a transfusion before giving his body a chance to correct that problem. They will draw blood in the morning so let's all keep our fingers crossed that they send the best lab person available.
All of the doctors and nurses comment on how strong and big he is (and of course how cute that hair is) and how that helps him to recover better. Even though we waited so long (in the short run) for this surgery the chance to grow and get strong has paid off.
Greyson is resting well now and will for hopefully a couple of hours. It's been a very long day and we are going to try and get some rest now as well.
