Mommy just had her morning visit with Rowan. To her surprise he was awake! Only one eye was open, but that was good enough. He was looking all around, moving his arms and legs, which was great to see. His surgeon's partner, Dr. Fiore, was there this morning. He said the swelling is going down nicely, and that Dr. Kogut, Rowan's actual surgeon, is hoping to do the surgery on Friday. He said it wasn't for sure, but that is the tentative plan. We really hope this will be the case, as then we'll finally know Rowan will be home with us soon! He said one part of the bowel is a different color then the rest, but it isn't dead, so he isn't too concerned about it. He also said they had been seeing some particles in the bowel, but he believes it is just left over from when he was inside Mommy. Daddy also got to visit him late last night after working and had a great visit with him. He told Mommy the details, but she was half asleep and doesn't quite remember what he said.
