Today Coleson had the first surgery of 3, I think. It all depends on how the next 1 or so go as to how many more he will need. He did fairly well today. Doc was planning on grafting the front and backs of C's legs with his own skin but when he got in there he decided that his wounds needed cleaned up. Therefore he ended up using cadaver skin to act as bandaids until monday his next surgery. Then the doc will start grafting C's skin to start repairing.
It was so difficult to see the docs wheeling C off and standing there praying to God that this wasnt the last time I would tell C that I love him. For all the love I hold in my heart for my kids, I know God loves them even more than I. We can truly feel each prayer thats being lifted on our behalf and may God bless each one of you who take the time to breathe a prayer for us. I know we could not make it through if it werent for such an awesome support that we have.

ReplyDeleteKeep the faith! There is nothing that is harder than watching one of your children going through something like this! Standing there telling them you love them and wishing it was you in there place is so hard but remember---above all God loves them more than you do! You are such awesome parents and Christians that I truely believe God has a reason for this "trial." Hold fast and remember we are all praying for you and will hold your hands along the way!
Love you!
Amy,

We love you & are here for you if you need anything!
