Surgery

Surgery is scheduled for 9am tomorrow. Please keep him in your prayers.

Today was pretty quiet. Jackson has been on morphine since last night and has been sleeping quite a bit. When he's not sleeping he wants to watch Mickey saves Santa. It's kind of funny because he seems to wake up whenever we change the channel or when the movie is over and wants to watch it again. Of course we can't tell him no, so we've watched it ALL day long.

Brandon has gone to pick up Papa Barnett who has flown in to help us out this week (we'll miss you Nana). They are going home to get a good nights rest and give Bubba some much needed loving and will be back here tomorrow before surgery. The surgery should take about 2-3 hours and after that he'll be moved back to the children's area and out of PICU. It'll be nice to have a real room again and hopefully be that much closer to going home.

Thank you all for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. Jackson has been through SO much and I hope after this it is a very long time before he has to come back. Thanks again for all your support. We love you all!
