P&PT- DS having surgery tomorrow

DS17 goes in tomorrow morning for surgery to release the entrapped nerve in his foot tomorrow. He has never had any sort of surgery before and is pretty nervous. I'm a little anxious myself, although I have complete confidence in his wonderful surgeon. It will be an outpatient procedure with no general anesthesia, which is good, just an ankle block and something to relax him via IV.

Beam us your good thoughts early tomorrow morning for an uncomplicated surgery and quick recovery!

Sending good vibes for your son's surgery tomorrow, although as long as you trust his surgeon, I suspect it will go smoothly and he will have little to no pain. My dd recently underwent outpatient surgery on both feet and recovered quite quickly. I am always so impressed with the medical advances that we have made!

Good luck!

PPT's coming your way. Everything will go fine, I'm sure. My 16dd has had 3 surgeries on her right thumb since she's 18 months old and each time I was a basket case - turned out fine.

P & PTs coming your way. I'm sure all will go fine. It is always so hard to see your "little one" (even if he's 6'2" 220!!) go in for surgery, but hang in there. It'll be over before you know it. Hope recovery is smooth sailing for both of you.
