We are back!

This was a snap compared to everything else that Evan has gone through. The new hospital has a play room for the kids so the waiting for the procedure to start was not too irksome. A Child Life specialist even came by and did some medical play with Evan and another kid that was in for a procedure too. Evan still fought the gas mask to put him under and it was hard keeping him on my lap while he went under.

It was a quick procedure only about three hours. He came out with two crowns (one silver and one tooth colored) and two fillings. His cardiologist came by to see how he was doing which was very nice of her since officially he was not really her patient. Evan charmed all the nurses as usual and did not throw up the juice he was allowed to drink. We were home around 1:30, in time for me to get a nice nap after wolfing down lunch at home.

Here is a picture of Evan's new smile. Just kidding!



Evan coloring in his Thomas coloring book. Thomas was the second word out of his mouth upon waking up. the first was cars. I guess I know where I stand is his life right now.
