5 long months

The next five months is the longest five months in our live. We have to go though many-many diagnoses, which include meeting with the genetic specialist. Ohhh I forgot to tell you that we, my wife and my self, are cousin, not so distance cousin. My wife is a daughter of my uncle with his 2nd wife. We didn't know each other well until we get engaged. And we did not tell our doctors about this, until we met the genetic specialist, in which we have to tell the truth, nothing but the truth.

Anyway, the day was getting closer and closer. Dr. Samahah has setup the operation on October 22, 2004 at Beth Isreal Deaconess Medical Center Boston. We went to hospital really early in the morning, worried about traffic jam.

Here are few pictures I took before and during the operation.

OK. Enough about us. From now, I will focus more on Aina Nadirah, since this is her blog!
