The time is almost here!

Cyler is scheduled to have his omphalocele  muscle closure surgery the beginning of December.  We have chosen to go with our second opinion surgeons.  They have tons of experience with kids like Cyler.   We felt that the last surgeon wasn't to sure of himself.   We kept hearing "6 more months".  Please understand that we are  in NO rush for this surgery to happen but it needs to.   We are eternally grateful to Cyler's prior surgeon as he has performed surgeries on Cyler from the day he was born we just needed to get a second opinion.   

We have explained to Cyler what is going to happen and he pretty much understands.  He is such an awesome kid.   They explained that the surgery could take up to 4 hours.  This is our baby and it is going to be hard for him...we don't like that.  We don't want want him to have any more pain.   He is so brave and strong.   He has handled so much in his 5 years than most have handled in their entire life.  HE IS AMAZING!
