We are nestled snugly into our room at the Ronald McDonald House. Simon is fast asleep, and we are still full from a wonderful BBQ hosted by an army of volunteers. The dinner included burgers, dogs, chicken kabobs, mashed potatoes, mac 'n cheese corn casserole, ice cream, cookies, watermelon, and some other stuff I have probably forgotten. It is amazing what people pull together and do here for the families who stay. Sure, there are some rules that are a tad of an inconvenience, but you just can't beat the place. I only wish that I lived closer so that I could do more than the pop tab collection.
Anyhow, getting back to our situation, the surgery was postponed by a few hours. Instead of starting at 7:30, we start at 10:30. This means that we report at 8:30. Our only concern is that Simon is going to be antsy in the morning. He usually starts his day with a milk-yogurt-instant breakfast shake, but he will not be able to have anything of the sort when he wakes up. Hopefully we can distract him with the play room down the hall. Wish us luck!
