My baby boy goes under the knife tomorrow...

My youngest son is having an actual surgery tomorrow.  He's four years old so I am scared to death.  He was born with Hemifacial Hyperplasia which literally means "half of the head is over grown.  The odds of getting such a thing are pretty high, and at first we thought it was cancer.  Four years later after close observation from his Pediatrician Dr. C, the Neurologists at Devos Children's, Dr. S. of Grand Rapids Ear Nose and Throat, his dentist at Kent County Clinic and the countless specialists at THE University of Michigan, we have finally determined what he has and that it is not overgrowing at a rate that would be considered severe, and have determined a course of action deemed "necessary" with more options for him when he is old enough to decide for himself what he wants to do.  God Bless all the Doctors that quickly got him where he needed to be, and kept him safe procedure after procedure.
