Nothing major.  Were in London yesterday.  Met with 'Terry' the Child Life specialists.  His job is to play with the kids.  Give them something positive at the hospital as opposed to just doctors and nurses doing all the poking and proding.  Not saying doctors and nurses aren't positive.
He went through the process of surgery and showed Jasper a port that had been inserted in his puppet's chest already.  He sent us home with some props and tools used in the surgery so Jasper can play with them and become more familiar with them before it's his turn.

We also had a baseline check in with a dentist there in the hospital.  He was very nice and friendly as he only deals with children.  He says Jasper mouth, teeth, gums, jaws etc are perfectly normal.
Still no word on having surgery moved up, but we're still trying.
Take care everyone.
