Port insertion Surgery has been expedited to Wednesday Sept 28 @ 11am. Treatments will be able to begin the following week, October 5th.
Hopefully Jasper will take the process of surgery okay and recovery period will be minimal. The child life specialist has agreed to meet us pre-op and play with Jasper for a while as well as go into the OR with him until he is asleep. I hope that's enough.... I'm nervous and worried that he'll be upset but hopeful that he'll surprise me and be a "super dude". We practised on 'George' (his doll that the child life specialist gave him) last night, put the gas mask on him till he was asleep and gave him the IV, and then inserted his own special port, then stitched him up.
I think Jasper will be okay with it, because he is okay with having a port like Isaac :-) Please keep Jasper in your thoughts and prayers while he undergoes surgery tomorrow and treatments to follow. I'm looking very forward to seeing the positive changes in Jasper, that I'm this therapy will give him.
God bless.
