Lainey girl with her puppy, joined by new friends elephant and teddy.<\/p>\n

It’s going on midnight, and I’m TIRED. \u00c2\u00a0Randy has the night shift at the hospital, and I drove home and will return in the morning. \u00c2\u00a0So, this will be a short post about today.<\/p>\n

Lainey is fun to watch after she takes the “pink medicine”. \u00c2\u00a0It made her woozy, dizzy, extra-silly, and made her vision go loopy. \u00c2\u00a0According to her, dada had 3 eyes and mama had 2 mouths. \u00c2\u00a0Yes, I took video for proof.<\/p>\n

Surgery went perfectly, no hitches, problems, or surprises. \u00c2\u00a0Only took 1 hour. \u00c2\u00a0Praise God.<\/p>\n

The surgeon was able to do the procedure that she wanted to (sphincter pharyngoplasty) …meaning, Lainey had enough good muscle to work with and her carotid arteries weren’t in the way. \u00c2\u00a0We’re very thrilled about this!<\/p>\n

She’s been sleeping on and off all day, and only complaining about her throat a little bit. \u00c2\u00a0No smiles yet…she’s a bit grumpy about the whole situation. \u00c2\u00a0I think I would be too! \u00c2\u00a0She’s taken some sips of drinks and maybe half a popsicle. \u00c2\u00a0The doctor wasn’t concerned so much with how much she took in today, but we expect that she’ll begin to drink more tomorrow…especially, since that’s the test she’ll have to pass before she can go home.<\/p>\n

Baptist hospital rocks! \u00c2\u00a0Everyone has been wonderful, the food in the cafeteria was yummy (frozen yogurt!), and Lainey scored, not one, but TWO stuffed animals. \u00c2\u00a0Her surgeon came by to check on her this afternoon, too. \u00c2\u00a0That should be a given, but that never happened with her other surgeries in FL.<\/p>\n

Thanks to all who prayed for her today, we are very thankful!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
