So we finally decided to go ahead with Cohen's hernia surgery. We prepped him the night before and the day of as to what was going to happen. He did so good. He loved his purple "pj's" that they gave him to wear and he did really well with everyone that came to "visit" for his pre-op checks. When it came time to separate, he did so good. Didn't cry at all. We were concerned about how he would do with the whole putting him to sleep thing, but the nurse came out and told us he put the mask on like a champ and they rocked to sleep singing songs, tear free. It melted my heart, my brave little boy. After surgery he did freak out a bit but soon after he was fast asleep at home recovering. When he woke up for good, grandma Carol was there feeding him her famous garlic bread (he didn't want spaghetti) and he got to eat all the ice cream and candy he wanted. What a brave little boy! He acted like nothing every happened!
