Nate's scar...before and after. The surgeon used the same incision and extended it a bit around his side so that he could get at his liver under his rib cage. Part of me says, "Hey, we just got that thing healed!", but it is nice that he will only end up with one scar from both surgeries. One..."totally awesome, they cut my tummy in half, twice, when I was two, don't you feel sorry for me and want to hug me, ladies"...scar.
That is one cool scar, the babes will love it!
ReplyDeleteWow! Definitely a conversation starter. "Oh, that ol' thing?" :-) To be honest, I barely notice the one that Nicolas has from the heart surgery he had as a baby. I bet it will fade quite a bit as time goes by.
ReplyDeleteImagine the cool tattoo he'll come home with after a college spring break. You won't know to laugh or ground him.

And, there's the old "Yeah, you should have seen the other guy, I came out good" Nate, you always have to keep him quessing. We love you buddy, when you get home we'll compare scares! Love Gramma D.
