Jacob avoids the knife again

Jacob was supposed to have surgery on his eyes tomorrow but we
postponed it at the last second. In his pre-op exam his eyes were
doing much better than they had the previous visit so we decided to
wait a few months.

This isn't the first time that this has happened with Jacob. When
Jacob was just a few weeks old he was supposed to have a tracheotomy
because we was having trouble breathing off of the ventilator. The
day before he pulled his own breathing tube out and has been
breathing on his own ever since. It seems that all Jacob needs is to
be faced with a scalpel and he decides to try and fix things on his own.
