After dropping off Cooper's images last week, we've been waiting to hear what's next. While we scheduled surgery, Dr. Gus and Dr. Einzig were still contemplating whether to order an MRI or a CAT scan.
We now know that Cooper will have an MRI late next Monday, Sept. 24. He will be under an anesthetic, but hopefully, because of the small dose, it will only take about 30 minutes to recover.
When I talked on the phone with Dr. Gus, he was still unsure whether he would be able to cut out the narrow section and suture the top and bottom or if he'd have to put in an artificial graft - the unknown being the reason for ordering the MRI.
We are continuing to hope and pray that in three weeks from this moment - 7:30 PM of Oct. 8 - Cooper's surgery has been a success and he is resting comfortably with his issues fixed. Thanks to everyone who is doing the same.
