Just sitting here feeding Eric his last meal he is sneaking in before midnight (Kraft Mac n' cheese and peaches). We wanted to send a quick update to let you know that we are feeling at peace about the feeding tube surgery tomorrow and plan on leaving the house at 9 am to go to St Mary's hospital to get prepped for the surgery at 11. We have consulted with the best surgeon for this through our ALS doctor and they feel confident that they can do the surgery and are aware of our wishes. Eric has been tolerating the bipap well at night and will wear it during the procedure. We have also "consulted" our Great Physician in prayer and feel his peace and protection guarding our hearts and minds. Please be in prayer for continued peace, no anxiety as Eric will not be under heavy anesthesia and have more local, no breathing difficulties and a skillful, quick surgery with a speedy recovery.
We appreciate and feel your prayers already. Thanks for the e-mails, phone calls, meals, taking the kids, help with Christmas decorations, visits, prayers and all the love we feel from you all. We are so blessed!
We will try to post as soon as we are home tomorrow to give you an update.
Love,
Lori and Eric
P.S. We had a great time staying at the Amway Grand overnight with the kids!
