My dear Downsyn friends,

Tomorrow is Ethan's tonsillectomy and tongue reduction. His palate will also be expanded slightly by simply pulling the stitch tighter around the pillars. This is all for sleep apnea, which is in the moderate range right now.

If you could just keep Ethan in your thoughts and prayers, I would appreciate it, thanks!

I will be updating via Facebook and my blog.

Oh poor Ethan. This makes me sad. I hope the surgery does all it's supposed to do! Give our big boy a hug from us!

Thanks Amy! I am most nervous about this surgery and his recovery. Praying it is what he needs for a good night's rest.

Prayers for Ethan. That sounds like a big surgery. Prayers for a recover that is not too painful, too.
