It is 7:59am. We took Henry down to the OR at 7:00. Met the wonderful team of nurses and doctors. Wendy is our nurse and will be calling us about every hour with updates.
You must use your imagination, but I want to explain that the pre-op area is a literal 'beehive' of activity. Doctors and nurses everywhere, children waiting with their parents....probably 40 physicians and nurses and in walks Dr. Einhaus. She came to ask if we had any more questions...and then she asked if we wanted to pray. Of course we did, and she got down on her knees and prayed for Henry, her nurses and herself. We are in good hands.
Will update as soon as we can.
Happy days....

You are in GREAT hands!
WE love you guys and are excited for what this can do for Henry's life!
You are the best parents in the world! We are praying for all of you throughout the day, especially our Henry boy! Trust in Him who has brought you to this place. There is a quote that says, "A sure sign of God is when we are on a path WE never intended to be on." I hope your day is filled with Peace as you are where you have been led, and you are there out of the amazing LOVE you have for Henry! Robyn and John

I can feel that God is there with you. Holding Henry in his arms while the doctors work. He is keeping a close eye on their every move, guiding their hands. We are in prayer for you every moment. I bet you can feel God's arms around you too. Love you. Ginny Kobe
Hi Paul and Shelley,
The very first thing I thought of this morning when I woke up was, "Henry!" And my last thought last night as my head hit the pillow was of you two, that you may get restful sleep and of that sweet little man of yours....that this new day may bring him a new beginning. Hal tells me all the time to "have faith in the process"...like Robyn so eloquently said, "You are where you have been led." (That is a beautiful saying.) And we have faith and trust that this is Henry's moment.
Peace and Love to you,
Hal and Melissa
God is good and he is there with that doctor and that baby boy!!!!!!!!
love to you all!!

When Holly told me this, it moved me deeply. I knew that God had you all in His hands, just as Paul and I have been praying for all this time....
