Here we go

We have prepared. We have a second floor living-dining room, a small fridge in Alex’s room, Nate’s TV for months of entertainment, clean sheets, and two special CHG showers. It snowed this morning, but not enough to keep us away from Gillette and Dr. Koop. Alex was on time for his 6am arrival.

The team was ready and whisked him into prep. Meetings with nurses, Dr. Koop, the anesthesiologist, and more. A final CHG wipe down and a snazzy blue bear hug robe. Alex got his IV placed and was ready to go. At about 7:40am they wheeled him out.

Thanks for all your good vibrations! We are hoping for steady hands and minimal nausea. We will keep you posted.
