**I am a bit unsure about the start time after talking to the nurse (but the doctor wasn't there tonight. It might start as early as 4:30 pm Tokyo time? I am not completely sure.**
Dear all,
I just got a call from Isaac's doctor saying that the eye doctor checked Isaac's ROP (retinopathy of prematurity) and it has now worsened from Stage 2 to Stage 3. They would like to perform laser eye surgery on him tomorrow evening Tokyo time before his eyes get worse. The surgery is much more straight forward and less risky than his heart surgery last Thursday but they will put him under general anesthesia so that he wouldn't be able to move during the surgery.
Please pray for a smooth surgery and that the surgery will successfully treat his ROP. Jong is not here and I don't have the wireless connection so I will need to update after I get home late tomorrow night.
The surgery will probably start around 5:30 pm to 6:00 pm Tokyo time, which is 4:30 pm to 5:00 pm Hong Kong time, 4:30 am to 5:00 am EST and 6:30 pm to 7:00 pm Sydney time. It will take around 2 hours (1 hour for each eye).
Apart from his eye condition, Isaac has been doing very well after his surgery - thanks to all of your prayers.
In Christ,
Sonia

Sonia,
Thanks, as always, for the update. I will certainly say some extra prayers for you all tomorrow. I'm sure everything will go just fine. God truly seems to be keeping a close watch on you all. Isaac's such a trooper too. He's pulled through everything so well so far.
