The Tooth and Nothin' but the Tooth....
Jasper will be having surgery on the 31'st of this month. For most parents, a dental surgery is no big deal, for us it's a little more. Because of Jasper's heart conditions, he takes medicines that cause his teeth to decay and never solidify. His teeth are very "soft" and have to be capped--sometimes the capping gets too heavy and the tooth must be removed or re-capped due to more decay. This is the case with Mr. Jasper. So what's the big deal?
Because of his cardiac, he must have a cardiologist on board for the surgery, meaning he is admitted to the children's hospital and goes general anesthesia! So please pray for my little man this upcoming Monday that everything goes well. We are praying and believing it will be a piece of cake!
Jasper HATES any surgeries, of course, so pray for courage for his little spirit!As I just sit here typing this, he just came up to me and handed me a VERY heavy white cap that fell off of his tooth, so I am off to call the doctor, as we can't get any infection in the bloodstream.
We already did that once, and it entailed 6 weeks in the hospital for BE antibiotics. Yuck!
Thanks for all of your prayers--will update soon!
Blessings,
K
