Surgery in September

I emailed Dr. Fearon about waiting until January. I must have misunderstood what he said, because he sent a message back and said that he doesn't see any reason why it can't be done sooner. He told me any time after Aug is just fine, but he would leave it up to us. Jesse will be 18 months in August and 1 year post-op, so I'm thinking about moving the surgery up to Sept. I thought he had mentioned waiting longer, but after talking to both surgeons for an hour each, I must have been mistaken. It would be nice to get this over and done with sooner rather than later if there are no concerns about doing it earlier.

I emailed to ask about when we could schedule, and I have to wait until July to get a date in September. The surgery requires a craniofacial surgeon (Dr. Fearon) and a neurosurgeon (Dr. Sacco), and Dr. Sacco's schedule is only available 2 months prior.
