My hair is turning gray!!!

We've been to the dr. twice this week. First on Monday i took him b/c he's been running fever, runny nose, and rubbing his ear. So I thought ear infection. Well, he didn't have an ear infection. There was also something else that I asked the Dr. about. When I changed Colt's diaper, there would be this bulge in his groin area when he cried. I noticed it once on July 4th b/c he was crying b/c of his diaper rash. But I hadn't seen it again since this past weekend. So the Dr. couldn't see anything so just said he wouldn't worry about it unless it became more common. Well, this whole week he's been crying every time I change hid diaper b/c he's had an upset stomach. So I've noticed it at least once a day. So I read up on it and thought maybe it was a hernia. I took him back to the Dr. It was a different Dr. cause our Dr. was out of town. This time he saw it and told me I was right. It's a hernia. So I have an appt with a surgeon next Tuesday to talk about what to do with it. The pediatrician today told me it's almost always corrected with surgery. So this will be his 4th. I have read that it's usually just day surgery so that will be better than a long stay. But it's still anesthesia and it's still wheeling out little baby off to a room where we can't be so they can cut him open. Oh and what makes things worse is we can't use the same surgeon. I only have my school insurance now. When he had his previous surgeries I had my bank of America ins. So Colt's original surgeon doesn't take my school ins. so I had to find a new surgeon. I hope I get a good feeling from her on Tuesday. We just really loved our last one and trust him with our son. He's done such a good job and he's known Colt since he was a few days old. usually I'm willing to give new people a chance but I'm a little hesitant when it concerns performing surgery on my son. But I'll meet her and decide if I want her to do this surgery. So keep us in your prayers as we go through another surgery. And I know I can't post w/out adding some pictures.
