Wes is coming out of surgery!!!! They are still working with his breathing tube, but actual surgery is OVER. Dr. Bowman and Dr. Vicari came out to tell us everything went perfectly. He did indeed have two encephaloceles, which are repaired now.
He will have a g-tube for about two weeks, due to the communication of his open palate and the surgery site. Anesthesiologist is trying to remove his breathing tube. We will know soon, but will not be able to update for awhile. I will be with my baby!

My boy is such a strong little fellow!!

Gina and Joey,

We were so glad to hear everything has gone so well for Wes. I know that today's progress has lifted a big weight from your shoulders and your heart. Words can not express how good it it feels to know he is in such good hands and that he is loved by all he meets. Give all three boys a big hug and kiss for us and to the rest of the family too.
Love you,
Aunt sharron

I was so happy to hear from Toni last night and learn that things were going well. I hope that Wes was more comfortable and able to rest better today. I pray that every day will be better.
