Our thoughts tonight are with Ava's cousin Mason as he is in the hospital in "critically stable" condition. He goes into surgery tomorrow for tracheostomy surgery (he's currently getting help with his breathing from a ventilator, but tomorrow they will connect it via a trach instead of through his mouth). We're thinking of Mason and his family and praying all goes smooth with the surgery! If you would like to visit his blog to catch up on the latest and leave a positive comment, you can view it at http://mason-ryder.blogspot.com/
We remember our 70+ days in the hospital with Ava, and remember the roller coaster ride of it all. Mason's and his parents Christi and Bill have been there, done that, and more. They are outstanding advocates for Mason through all the ups and downs. I've witnessed first-hand what a huge difference that makes (but also how exhausting it can be). Positive thoughts to them all!
We're all doing well except Ava is getting over another ear infection that has made her a bit cranky the last few days. We did make a quick trip to Seattle for a night to visit some friends celebrating their birthdays last weekend which was fun. My friend Tim snapped some nice photos while we enjoyed the view from his parent's house on the water on Lake Union!
