Atlanta day 3





We have safely made it back from the surgery center.  The surgery went very well, they got all the samples they needed and Dawson tolerated the anesthesia very well.  It took him just a little while to wake up but he came out of it happy and hes nursing right now.  We had to be there at 6:45 this morning so it has already been a long day for us all.  His leg looks pretty good although we can tell there is already a lot of bruising behind the bandages.  As far as pain goes, the surgeon said he loaded it full of lidocane so it will probably be a while before it starts hurting him.  Hopefully it won't be too bad.

Thank you Thank you  Thank you for all of the prayers today. How comforting it is to know that our family was praying for him.

Oh and by the way still no seizures  this is day 6 and if we get through the day we will break our old record.  So in the last 11 days he has only had one set of seizures.  How amazing!!

We are so proud of him and all he has accomplished.  We pray now that the this surgery will be fruitful and that the test will help with his diagnosis and treatment.

Our love to all

Jeff and Allison
