Callie is scheduled to have her dental surgery tomorrow morning around 11 am. We’ve made some progress at home with getting her to wear her Bi-pap, but she still won’t sleep with it on. After she’s extubated, our hope is that if she’s awake enough to scream about not wanting to wear the Bi-pap mask, her oxygen levels will be good enough so that she doesn’t need it. But we plan to go in armed with books and movies to keep her occupied in case that doesn’t happen.
We will post an update about Callie’s surgery either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
As an aside, people are usually interested in how our boys interact with Callie. We always say that they, naturally, adapt everything they do to accommodate her. This video shows just that. Isaac and Ezra had new Star Wars lightsabers, so one afternoon, Isaac decided to get some of the action on video. That turned into him wanting to make a little movie. And you can guess who he decided to cast as the heroine.
(Note: Callie’s glasses are just for play. Isaac and Peter recently got reading glasses, and when Callie had her eye exam, she cried when they told her she didn’t need any. So Nathan couldn’t help but get her a pair of fake glasses to play with.)
Praying for your family. Great video!!
All of you have been in my thoughts and prayers.
Faaantabulus!!!!! Video!!! Excellent scriptwriting and special effects?
Waiting to hear outcome of surgery like all the everyone in your World
Praying for Callie and her doctors that surgery will go well. Praying for y’all as well during the waiting process. Great video!! We are hoping to see all of you at Upward Flag Football.
Video was great! Can’t believe how much the boys have grown, and Callie is so cute. I am praying for you all today, and that the doctors hands will be guided by the Hands of our Great Physician. I pray you feel the strength and power of the Holy Spirit as you go through this and everyday of this journey! Love you all.
What an awesome video! Loved it! Praying for all aspects of surgery tomorrow. Lord bless your precious family!
Terrific. Y’al are all bordering on cool–How cool is that?
Nathan, if Sticks was here, he’d say, “I love and pray for you all.” I can add naught to that, except an arrhythmic “I love you all.”
Praying for you, the families–and the doctors.
Hey Goldens! Will be praying for you all. Hope all goes well. Loved the video.
Adorable video! Impressive videoing skills! Praying for Callie’s surgery.
Will certainly be praying for Callie tomorrow and for you and Nathan as well.
Loved the video! Can’t get over how much the boys have grown. Could filmmaking be part of Isaac’s future? I’m impressed with his skills.
Xox, Carol.
Good luck! Thinking of you Callie (and all of the Goldens!)
Praying for you all!! Love the video Callie!! See you soon Golden Girl!
Prayers coming your way tomorrow for Callie. Loved the movie!!
