Just a quick note to let y’all know that Jonathan is still in surgery. I’ve been getting periodic phone calls throughout the day from the surgery team to touch base. So far, so good.

So, for now, we continue to wait.

I’m in the surgery waiting room, which is a comfortable space with a nice view with a few other families. We’ve been nervously chatting and comparing notes about how long we anticipate being here today.

Today I’m keeping myself occupied by listening to an audiobook and knitting… and keeping my phone close at hand so I don’t miss a phone call. Earlier today, I missed a call from the surgery team due to a fire alarm which caused this wing of the building to be evacuated. Luckily, the incident didn’t impact the wing where Jonathan’s surgery is taking place and the alarm didn’t last very long.  Now I have the volume of my ringer turned on high and I’ve got my phone in my hands so I don’t miss another call.

Will post another update when I have news to share!
