Surgery Delayed

We got some very disheartening news today after seeing Dr. Sponseller for our Xray. Because Robbie has a diaper rash he want Dr. Gearhart to look at him to see if this would be an issue. After a 10 minute walk across campus and a 45 minute wait to see Dr. G he took about 10 seconds to say no on surgery because of the high risk of infection. Where they make the incisions is right where the diaper rash is located. We now have to wait and see how quickly the rash can clear up and if a miracle can happen and we can get a full day of Operating Room time here very soon. We were lucky in a sense today because the head of Dermatolgy happened to be there and look at Robbie himself, Dr. Cohen. Just like everyother doctor we have met here, he was a great person. We will know more tomorrow after noon and will keep everyone updated.
