Today we went to see Dr. Marsh about tongue reduction surgery and when we got there we told him that Harrison was needing an MRI first and that could not happen until Friday. Dr. Marsh thought he could move things along so we would not have to wait until Friday for the MRI. Sure enough he got him in tonight. After being intubated and given anesthesia he had about a two hour MRI. As soon as it was over we got to see him. He was a bit agitated at first, but now he is in his room for the night and very happy to be playing with dad.
We will get MRI results at 7:00 am Wednesday morning.
Dr. Marsh evaluated Harrison today and determined he is a good candidate for tongue reduction surgery. SO... if the MRI comes back clear then he will have surgery in the morning-at about 8:00 am. We now know more about the surgery and realize it will be a pretty long recovery for little HT. We will try to update the blog as much as we can to keep you all posted. Thanks to everyone for praying for us.

Esther and I prayed for Harrison this morning when i read your blog. I told her that her sweet friend is sick. Tonight at bedtime, josh asked her who she would like to pray for and she said "harrison, sick" and then she said, "and miss abbey". (we prayed for mr scott too). I am glad they could get the MRI done sooner! and that he is doing well. We will be praying for you all!!
