This photo made my day so I thought I would share.
These two little ones both had heart surgery similar to what Jacob will be having. Ian, on the left, had his surgery when he was 15 weeks old and he’s doing so great (obviously)! His Mom posts pics on FB all the time and he’s such a happy active little guy – always makes me smile. His little buddy Noah on the right had his surgery ---- *three and a half weeks ago* ---- and I think that smile (and the fact that he’s out of focus because he’s wiggling so much) speaks for itself!!!
Thank you precious Ian and Noah for providing happy reminders of what post-surgery looks like to help us be brave until we get there.
(...and thank you to Ian's Mom and Noah's Mom for all the helpful and encouraging information as we prepare for this!)
Awwww...such cuties! And just remember...you have a lil' reminder right in front of you! Just think how much better Jacob is now post IS and steroids. Super happy and playful, just like Ian and Noah! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're right we do!
DeleteOk, I am not sure at all how I missed this! I subscribed to updates but I am thinking I will have to check my junkmail more carefully and get these on my "safe list." It is amazing to think that heart surgery time for Ian was so long ago that I usually forget that he had heart surgery... that is crazy to think of! I firmly believe in our sons' spirits. I always knew that Ian's spirit was strong and good. And so is Jacob's... his spirit shines! Hugs!
