SURGERY TIME

They took Julia back at 1:30. We made the decision to have them do an epidural in place of narcotics. Please pray for no complications from this and perfect comfort for her. Julia has been happy all morning and fine without food or drink. She watched TV, played games, told stories, and in the pre-op was telling knock-knock jokes. She's tired and ready for a nap (they woke her at 6:30am), so was content with her pacis- in her mouth and toes- when they took her back. Thank you for covering her in prayer. They do not know the duration. They have a lot to do and are striving for perfection. We were told 2 to 4 hours or longer and not to be alarmed if it takes a while. They will call us every hour with updates.
