Luke's biopsy has been rescheduled for Tuesday, May 8. While we are excited to get this done and over with, it was nice to have another two weeks to prepare ourselves, and Luke is now able to participate in his school's field day this Saturday! Luke had strep throat last week, which is why we had to reschedule. He is now on antibiotics, which end right before the procedure date, so the odds of him being sick again are very low. He is scheduled for 9 am. The procedure requires 12 hours of observation, so we should be able to go home by 9 or 10 in the evening. It's late, but way better than sleeping in the hospital. We will be in the city by 7:30 am for pre-op blood work (oh boy, Luke's favorite!) and then to the biopsy at 9:oo. I will do my best to keep everyone informed. If you would like more info on what goes on during the biopsy you can read my posts from the biopsy he had about 3 years ago.
Here and
here I explain in detail how the biopsy will happen. Thank you all for the kind words and prayers. Luke amazes us everyday with his ability to endure and adapt.
Please continue to pray for Luke to continue to be strong and breeze through whatever may come next.
