Sugery Time..again

On 9/2 Diego will have surgery to his left hand. The procedure is called 'Carpal Wedge Osteotomy' and will be performed by Dr. Ezaki. In the past we have combined surgeries which makes recovery tough but lessens the number of times under general anestesia. This time we could not schedule a Urologist so Diego will have at least one more surgery in the next 6 months. The good news is, this should be his last major surgery in the foreseeable future.

Last night we threw a send off party for Diego at our home in Manor. All the usual suspects showed up along with new friends we met at Peacable Kingdom. Brad, Amanda, their daughter Madison and son Eli. Eli is 5 months old and was born with Distal Arthrogryposis. We were very happy they could join us.

Diego was in good spirits. He bounced around the house on his butt chasing and playing with the other kids. There were plenty of food and drink on hand so the adults were just as happy. Sorry we don't have any photos to post. We totally forgot to take pictures!

Check back later for updates on the surgery.

Here is a recent photo take at Dell Children's Museum in Austin.

Diego in Italia July 2009

Woohoo! Back to Italy for 3 weeks! Now that's a vacation!

We all had a wonderful time. Including Diego's Grandparents who were so excited to see him. The pictures tell the story.
