Tubes Tomorrow

I guess I had blocked out the idea for long enough because I hadn't freaked out too much about it until today when the phone was ringing like crazy. Call one, preregistering him. Call two, going over directions to hospital, rules, history and walking me through what would happen. Call three, time for procedure. Call four, time change. Okay so it's officially real and I am officially worried. I keep trying to tell myself how common it is, which isn't hard when anyone that hears about it goes "Oh yeah _____ had those". It just scares me. It also doesn't help that during call two she informed me that he will have to go back to the surgery room and be put under without us there. I hate to think how scared he'll be being handed to strangers and going into that situation and neither one of us is there to tell him its OK. It makes me a little sick actually. We have to be at the hospital at 6:40 AM tomorrow for a 8:40 AM tube placement surgery. The food and drinks he had tonight before bed were it for him until after its all over so let's hope he isn't too thirsty when he wakes up. I have a bag packed of all kinds of his favorite toys so I'm hoping the 2 hours aren't too bad. I was told we will be meeting with both Dr. Sellner and the anesthesiologist before the surgery and I have a feeling that I will put in a final plea for him not to be without at least one of us when they are putting the mask over his face (although I have a feeling I will be nicely denied). I believe I'm a natural worried though....I haven't over read about any of this or Googled the crap out of the subject so that I am over loaded with the rarest of complication etc. I only have in my head what the doctor has told me and I am confident in him and trust him. But no matter what I'm just worried because he is too little to have to be in the hospital for anything. I know it is so simple but I just hate it...
