Well, Junior took Preston to neurosurgeon today, and when he saw his head, he said he would have to open Preston's head to see what was going on in there. Also, it needs to be drained in that area as well. Pre-op is tomorrow and I will get more details then; but we think it is outpatient surgery. Of course with Preston, you never know what might happen. Surgery is Monday a.m. at 11:15. Preston cried and cried when he got home; and Missie realized why. He was afraid he would get another brain infection and not be able to do anything. We told him we didn't think this would happen, but if it did, we would lovingly care for him until he recovered. The shunt itself is working fine, at least so far. We are hoping it will continue to be ok through all of this. So he is calmer now, and seems ok with it.
I am sad for him; the last few days he has been saying he is ready to go to Heaven to be with Jesus. He is tired of the illnesses, and his limitations, and wants to go to Heaven. I can understand that! But that is in God's hands. We would know he would be safe and healthy forever if Jesus did take him home.
Continued prayers would be much appreciated.

I am just getting caught up on reading since I've been in the hospital for 7 days. I will continue to keep Preston in my prayers along with all of you. I pray that God will once again show how magnificiant he is and heal Preston.
