2nd surgery

Good news! Collin had his second surgery last Wednesday and is doing well! We were worried a bit though at the beginning. We set out for Idaho Falls Wednesday morning, went through the same exact procedure we did in April, but then came post surgery-not good. Once I was allowed to go back after his surgery to recover, he was in so much pain. I've never seen him in so much pain, it was hard. They gave him so many drugs, it was hard to keep track....Percocet, demerol, morphine, hydrocodyne. You name it, they gave it. Finally after what seems an eternity, they were able to get his oxygen level back down and was released to go home. On a lighter note, he says he feels alot better then he did when he had his first surgery so we are optomistic! We've been trying to stay busy since he can't do much... board games, movies, having friends over and recently, tie-dying shirts and long naps inbetween. I am happy to report that Louie has been a great comfort to the both of us and helping us keep our spirits up!


So just in case your wondering.....we are doing good and hoping that Collin will be back on his feet soon. Until then, here's the half picture I attempted to take.
