Brennan's Journey

The support Brennan has received is overwhelming and incredibly humbling. There is a growing number of people who are asking us how they can help Brennan through his journey and our main focus and priority continues to be prayer for Brennan, his overall health and for the doctors. But so many people are wanting to help even more. For those that feel led to help Brennan financially, a "donate" button is now available. It is linked directly to a special account for Brennan and his long road ahead. Any amount is greatly appreciated. I wish there were words to express our gratitude for all of the support and prayers B is receiving. Thank you to all and God Bless.

Surgery

And we're off (left at 5:15am) He asked for cheerios, poor guy...


Signing papers


In hospital gown, waiting... being such a good boy


Dr. Lewin!!!, the surgeon, talking about the procedure

Talking about skin grafts... as B plays his game oblivious to what is going to happen

Tracing his "good ear" on transparency paper


Comparing size to mommy's ear and tracing mommy's ear on the paper to determine the size of his new ear

Reassuring B that it is all going to be okay



Last picture of the 3 of use before the big procedure


We love Dr. Lewin! Right now she is working on B and I am so at peace! Must be all the prayers coming our way!!!


Bye Bye "little ear"


So happy, even after the 'loopy juice'
About 30 minutes after they took B away, Dr. Lewin came out once to tell us that B went "out" great and that she was about to get started!
We received a call from the nurse a few minutes ago and she said Dr. Lewin has been working on him for 20 minutes and that B was doing great.
And now we wait...
It's about an 8 hour surgery so we will be waiting for a LONG time.
While we are in the waiting room, he nurse will be calling us and updating us on how he is doing.
Keep the prayers coming!!!
