Luke's Big Day!

Luke's eye surgery went really well! It was a simple procedure to unclog a tear duct in his right eye. He had to be put under, but only briefly. He was gone from us for about 20 minutes before the doctor came out and told us he did great! It was a long day...we had to wake up around 2:30 am so we could get ready to go and be checked in at Sacred Heart in Spokane by 6 am. We were home by 10:30! Luke slept the whole way home, and was back to his normal, happy self by the time he got up from his afternoon nap. God is so good!

Mom and Luke


Getting his blood pressure, temperature, etc.


Checking out the bed and putting on his little gown...it was so cute!


Little tiger gown


Hospital bracelet around his little ankle...we compared it to the one he had when he was born when we got home. What a difference!


In recovery, trying to reattach the little pulse monitor to his toe.



He really didn't want that thing on there!



All done and ready to head home!

Praise God for a great outcome. If it *had* to happen, that was the way for it to go, right?

Hugs to all the Snyders!
