Well, we talked to the nurse this morning and Julia isn't able to have surgery on Wednesday because of her croup. She actually has to wait 6 weeks before she can have surgery now. So today has not gone quite as we were planning. We were supposed to be on our way to St. Louis right now, instead we are at home. We are bummed that things can't go as planned, but glad the doctors are taking Julia's best interest to heart. We were able to get our hotel reservation cancelled and talked to my mom and Bob & Wendy to tell them we don't need them to come this week. We have tentatively set the new date for her surgery to be April 24th. Tomorrow, the doctor's office in St. Louis will check with their speech pathologist to make sure they have an appointment available the day before, then we should be able to finalize the date. Eric didn't go into work this morning after we found out the news which has been really nice. We decided we are just taking today as a mental health day and are resetting for tomorrow. I am the only one who isn't still in pajamas and that is only because I ran out to get us some lunch. Eric and the boys are busy playing with superheros and Julia is swinging away.
So now we are back to awaiting surgery, but we have awhile to go. By the time her surgery comes around, we should most likely know where we are moving to, what Eric's job will be, possibly what place we'll be living in, and hopefully, Eric will have deposited his dissertation the Friday before. We will enjoy some more Julia smiles and snuggles for a few more months before she has surgery. Here's hoping she stays healthy this time around.
