Sooner Than We Thought

Uncategorized 1 Minute

We’ll be sending up a lot of prayers this week.

Andrew’s surgery was schedule to happen in late September. Sam woke up this afternoon saying that the ENT office had called and wanted us to call back as soon as we got the message. They had mentioned a while back that they may want to move the surgery up a little.

They hadn’t called back by the time I left for work today. Sam called me as I pulled in to tell me that they indeed had moved it up … a lot. She posted this earlier today:

Got a phone call today from Andrew’s surgeon that he went over recent testing Based on that, plus the increase in choking and aspiration, it was no longer safe to wait for surgery. So Thursday this sweet boy will go in for yet another surgery. This surgery is a big one, with a whole bunch of scary things. But we are going in with faith that this will be the surgery to fix his little throat completely!

We have no idea how long he will need to stay in the hospital. They informed us of the many possibilities that he/we could be facing. Very scary possibilities, indeed. However, we will be praying that all goes well and that he heals up quickly. This weekend will be very stressful.

If you wouldn’t mind sending some positive vibes, good wishes, or prayers our way, I’d appreciate it.

I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more. I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way. CONTACT ME AT - nostalgicitalian@yahoo.com

  3. Sending you lots of love, strength and good vibes, Keith! It must have been quite a shock for you and your wife to have the operation moved forward. The doctors know what they’re doing. Andrew will be in the best hands – and I know you know this. I also know, that this information will be of very little use to you until he’s awake, safe and sound after surgery… We’ll be thinking of your boy. All the best.

  4. When our children are sick, time stops and everything in the world ceases to exist. This is the time for you to be stronger than ever. Have faith, Keith. Faith and the power of prayer have done miraculous things. My heart, thoughts, best wishes and prayers to you, your family and especially to Andrew. I will be placing his name on the prayer list at my local church. There will be many more people praying for Andrew and his surgeons than you ever thought possible.
    Let go and let God. 🙏🏼 🌹
