Well today went pretty smooth. We got up at the crack of dawn and were at the hospital by 7am. We got an echo on Cohen and that was followed by a tour of Dorenbecher's PICU and a brief break down of what our schedule will be like tomorrow. After the tour we met with a heart cardiologist followed by a sit down with the surgeon in charge of Cohen's surgery. Then Co got a chest x-ray, and I'm saving the best part of the day for last. The last thing we had to do for pre-opt was get a blood lab done. This was probably the least favorite thing today, Sarah and I pretty much had to hold little Co-bear down while these two nurses poked our poor little guy trying to find a vein to get some blood. The nurses were able to get some blood but not as much as they wanted. Sarah and I were a little short with each other after the blood lab, good thing were able to make each other laugh. We finished the day with my parents and went to dinner with my brother's family and are now going to have a very early night. We need to be checked in at 6:30am tomorrow and the Surgery will start at about 7:30am. We won't know anything till about 1 or 2pm. We will be sending out news to family and friends as soon as we get it. Cohen can use all your guys best wishes. Thanks again to all, Love the Graves Family
