Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! 

We are into the new year and already making plans for Noah's next surgery.  We go back to California Feb 8th for Stage 3, left side.  This time Dr. Brent will lift Noah's ear off of his head and put a skin graft on the underside.  We are excited and anxious all at the same time.  We have made all the arraigments for this trip and are just waiting for the date.  There has been just enough money raised to get us through travel arraingements and deposits for this surgery.  We will be in California for a week and a half this surgery.

On another note, Noah had an appointment with a endocrinologist today.  His pediatrician is concerned about his size and the rate that he is growing.  The endocrinologist didn't see anything that looked abnormal in the physical, but they are doing more tests.  They took a large amount of blood today and he got a little pale and light headed, but he never teared up...even when they took the blood.  He is such a big boy!

Thank you everyone for your support and we hope you have a wonderful 2011!
