more surgery

Ira goes in for his follow-up surgery tomorrow, Wednesday. The procedure will be at 10 a.m. We feel a bit more confident this time around as we know what to expect. The doc will make sure the airway recovered from the last surgery and will replace Ira’s trach with a smaller one. They will keep him overnight to see how he makes the adjustment to the new trach.

    Posted by Gram from Texas: We’ve heard that Ira’s surgery was very successful and he’s in recovery and won’t be spending the night at the hospital as previously planned. Joe will probably post as soon as they get home and get settled but just wanted anyone who is anxious to hear about today’s surgery to know that GOD IS SOOOO GOOD!!!!

    Please…

    I hope you guys get in and out ASAP. Good luck!
