Surgery Time is 11:15am

I just received a call from Brenda at Duke. Ollie's surgery with Dr. Rice is scheduled to start at 11:15am (Eastern Time). She said that we need to be there no later than 9:45am. It's nice to know the exact time now. And it's also nice to know we won't have to beat the sun up in the morning! (Those of you who know me know I am in no way, shape or form a morning person! That's why I work retail.)

Another nice thing about a late morning start is that we won't have to wake Ollie up really, really early to give him his last bottle of formula before surgery. Just really early...like 4:30am! He can have clear fluids up until two hours before surgery. Hopefully he likes glucose water with SimplyThick in it!

  2. Julian and I are thinking of you guys, hoping it goes as smoothly as possible, surprise & event-free. You have researched this decision inside and out, and have arrange the very best care possible; Ollie is the recipient of so much love and excellent care! And he will be a strong, little guy tomorrow! (After all, he takes after his parents.)
