Surgery Date

 July 16 is the day! I heard from Boston Children's Hospital's admission coordinator yesterday. She said that Lily is booked for surgery on July 16 and that they will have her arrive the 12th or 13th. That's about all I know right now, but it is both tremendously exciting and scary at the same time knowing we actually have a date. We're not sure yet if Cora will be allowed in the hospital. Like here, their visitor policy says 2 adults are allowed, but no one under 18 including siblings. I've emailed a social worker out there to hopefully get some more information. She sent me a housing application form. They have housing for families close to the hospital and they have shuttles that go back and forth. We're hoping to get in there if they have the availability. If not, there are hospitality hosts (kind of like Air BNB) that we can apply for. Just wanted to give the update! Please pray for us as we try to figure out how we will handle her time out there. We haven't decided who will go out there and for how long. It's complicated with 2 other kids, jobs, COVID, etc.!
