Today, Zachary attended his first movie ! The movie was CARS by Disney/Pixar. He was joined by Mom,Dad,sister Kiley and her friend Abbey. Little Bro Austin spent some quality time with Gma & Gpa. Zachary was well primed for the film thanks to the movie trailers on Disney channel, toy cars at McDonalds and most of all his new power wheels car; LIGHTING McQUEEN. He did very well until the last half hour. If it wasn’t for the half hour of previews I think he may have made it.

Zachary, underwent surgery again this past Tuesday. The procedure went pretty well. They first attempted to do it laproscopically. The surgeon felt it was not safe, because of all the scar tissue from transplant and following procedures. Zachary was re-opened and I pray this will be it for a very long time! He’s recovery was painful, but is going very well now. His J-feeding tube that bypasses the stomach was removed. ( not necessary anymore) Two meds were removed from his list : Previcid, and Pepcid. He still has G-feeding tube for meds and feeds. We are anxious to see if now he will begin attemping to swallow food. He is also going to be attending a feeding clinic at Childrens Hospital. This procedure is supposed to last 10-15yrs and will also help to prevent cancer of the esophagus. Zachary’s only upcoming procedure is a eye study, which he will need to be put under for. We are looking forward to a super fun summer.
