We now know that Noah will have surgery on October 22 at Riley Children's Hospital. Noah's surgery is scheduled to last for an hour and a half. It's an outpatient surgery so we will get to take him home the same day.
What are they doing? They will take out the extra skin between the digits on his right hand so he will be able to grasp items better and they will do exploratory surgery to see if they can take a tendon from his wrist out to the pinkie on that hand so that he can move it. It currently stays straight but the thumb works like normal. Noah is a right hand-er so we trust this will give the little extra he needs to keep developing.
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for Noah's safety.
- Pray for all us as we care for him after surgery. It will likely be a challenge to help this two year old with his curiosity.
- Pray that Noah will quickly adapt to his new function/coordination.
