Epigastric Hernia

My 2 year old son was diagnosed with an epigastric hernia this morning. I have been advised that this will require surgery. Does anyone have words of wisdom that will help me prepare my son?

Any further information about the recovery afterwards would also be most welcome.

Hi @NoisyLittleLion just wondering how your ds is. My dd has an eigastric hernia and we are just waiting on appointment. I just learned tonight from dr google that they don't heal themselves. Dr told me they don't do anything about them so I wasn't prepared to read surgery is needed Sad
