Surgery Number Two

We are not done. We have scheduled Grayson's surgery for his other ear set for April 17th, 2009. Please pray for my little man as he heads off again to Arkansas Children's Hospital. His hearing at this point is better than that of an average 30 yr. old. Now this second cochlear implant will not increase his hearing much more but will allow him to localize sound. It is for his safety that we have decided to proceed with this next surgery. (He will know which direction a car is approaching him, etc.) How amazing it is that we today have the technology to improve a child's life. Not too long ago this was not even possible and Grayson might have lost his pleasure of sound, the sound of my voice as I tell him I love him, or tell him goodnight, forever.
Wish us luck!
