Decisisons.....

I find myself in a constand debate about when to have suregery for Little Guy. Offically we are waiting for his left femur to heal more before taking the hardware out and having the chiari decompression surgery. this will give him one trip to the OR. Will it be to much for Little Guy? Should we do the right leg and decompression now? The left leg with the flexible nails will be an easy surgery, should we do that later? Will it be to late in the summer and recovery time run into school? I keep remembering the scene from Star Trek IV when bones rants about the primitive methods of dealing with brain injury. I almost wish that something would happen that would take the limbo out of this decision and make surgery a necissity. Like finding a syringomyelia would have made surgery needed. Little Guy goes acouple of days with out a headache and I think mabey we don't need it afer all and then Wham! a whopper of a headache takes him out. This limbo period of indecision sucks.
