I like Wolf Brother Crook's Rum Soaked Cigars. Start passing them out, Dad!
PS Getting "fixed" takes about 30 minutes, is done as out-patient surgery, and uses only a local to numb you know where.
Trust me, I KNOW.

But it makes your brain swell and instills an overwhelming desire to work nights.

We got him home Friday night and mom and daughter are bonding greatly w/ the little guy. He's already stealing hearts at a prodigious rate. To all appearances he's healthy as an ox and god willing will be in a couple mos. He's slated for heart surgery to open a valve in his heart that is shut. The plus side is that it is almost an outpatient surgery today, a decade ago it was open heart surgery. Though I won't lie to anybody and say it doesn't scare the hell out of me.
I'll just put my faith in God and keep my powder dry so to speak.

Hugs Shane, I am sorry you have to go through that.
We have a fetal echo this coming week to see if there are any heart defects. But since Adam's was something that was supposed to be open adter birth, we may not know till then.
Glad to see the tyke bundled up like that. This was a thing your grandmother did, but not too many people these days. I cringe in the grocery store seeing the underclad babies in their carriers.
