ISAAC'S SURGERY HAS BEEN SCHEDULED

The doctor has scheduled Isaac's surgery on his mouth for Tuesday, July 7. It will be at the hospital in Oxford, MS. Isaac has an appointment with a pediatrician in Oxford next Thursday. She will do a physical checkup on him to make sure that his heart and lungs are healthy enough for him to have surgery. What we know so far that his teeth will need are 7 caps, 2 fillings and one extraction. The dentist said that he will do x-rays while Isaac is asleep to make sure that there isn't anything else that needs to be taken care of while he is asleep. Isaac currently on an antibiotic for an absessed tooth and he is feeling pain with his teeth. I am giving him Tylenol and Motrin during the day to help with the pain. I am going to get some teething tablets from Walmart. I think those will help too. Please pray for relief for him from his pain. Please also pray for him with his check up next week. He gets very scared when a doctor tries to check him and he gets hysterical and screams. Please also pray for the procedure on July 7. Pray that God will protect him and that God will take away his fear.

oh Vickie! So many things going on in your life right now! We will keep you in our prayers daily. I totally know about the whole "freak out" thing. I'm wondering when we'll be able to take Gabriella to the dentist the first time. She HATES the doctors. With this little foot deal going, she throws a FIT every time we're even in an office. Yikes! I better start taking better care of her little teeth :)
Keep us up to date on all these goings ons!
How is mommy doing? I wish I lived closer. We'd go out for pedicures!
Lean on me anytime!
Love you my friend!
