Surgery a Real Scary Thing For a Child - Especially Brandon

Hello I feel like I haven't written much lately. I have been stressing over getting ready for Brandon to have surgery and it is tomorrow. It is a robotic surgery for Urinary Reflux. Meaning the doctor will use a robot to do the surgery. The Dr. is Waldo Feng and said he has never had a failure for this surgery. It has always been successful. So why then am I concerned? Brandon really stresses about things like this, and ran away when he needed have a VCUG. Granted it's no fun either. This time he will be over night 1-2 days. Also when he wakes up with a catheter, and IV's that's is not going to go over well. The surgery will be about 4 hours long. It is in the morning and I am not looking forward to telling him when it is. It is better with him not to tell him to soon. He knows it is coming, just not the exact time. He will have to bathe 2 times with the medicated soap diluted, before the procedure. He knows about that so once I tell him it is time to bathe he will not be excited. I did not want him worried about this while he was in school. I am more concerned about his reaction, worry, stress, that is what is stressing me. I love him very much, but he must wonder about that when it comes time to do something like this, and he doesn't want to do it. Please keep us in your prayers. Thanks, Brenda
