Oh how I am glad this day has come on gone! Ryker was born with what is called a sebaceous nevi.
Its a type of mole that can be cancerous once puberty hits. The drs recommended us taking it sometime before then or now because he wont remember the surgery. So we took there advice and had them remove it! I have been worried about this mole his whole 7 months of life...(I know weird, me worry???...hahah right!)He would often scratch it til it would bleed so I knew it must be irritating him. So we made the appointment and off it came! He had to fast for 8 hours!!! I was a little nervous about this because that is a long time for a babe who doesn't understand why he is starving and no one is feeding him, but he did awesome! Luckily, his appointment was at 8:45 Monday morning so he wasn't awake for an extremly long time without being feed. The staff were amazing and really helped ease my stress and worry! When we first got there we were taken into a room where they took Rykers vital signs
and where I changed him into his little scrubs-too cute! They were just tiny! Then we met with the anesthesilogist, the surgery nurse and finally the dr.
They explained to us what was going to happen. The anesthesilogist walked with us to a certain point then he said okay from here I will take Ryker. My heart sank,the river of tears came a flowin, we said our I love you's and off he went with some stranger...needless to say that was the most difficult part! Mike and I headed off to the cafeteria where we enjoyed some sweet rolls that some of our friends brought to us...thank you Bell's, they were delicious! We then headed back to the waiting room and waited for about 10 min before they called us back into the consiltation room. The dr said that they were able to get all of it and he is doing great! Yay!!! This was music to my ears! I was then able to go to the post op room and see my sweet boy! When I walked back into where he was and saw him laying on the bed
drinking his bottle I was overwhelmed with the love that I have for this sweet little boy. The nurses were laughing and asked if he was mine. I said yes he is! They said he is the best baby, when he woke up from the anesthesia he was laughing, singing and talking. This brought a smile to my face because this is exactly how my little guy is when he wakes up! I was then able to pick him up and hold him.
He head bobbing around, it was funny! We then moved into the recovery room where Mike was able to join us.
We were there for about 30 min then we were able to come home! I am so grateful for the prayers that were answered and that our little guy is home, safe and doing very very well! I am SO glad this day is over with!
I feel so blessed to live by such an amazing childrens hospital! Thanks for all the prayers,love and support that was shown to our little family on this day!
