Just a quick update on how today went for Miss Lainey.<\/p>\n
We started the day absolutely SURE surgery would get cancelled.\u00c2\u00a0 She woke up coughing A LOT and sounded congested.\u00c2\u00a0 Randy even suggested we just call someone and tell them she’s too sick.\u00c2\u00a0 But, we went and amazingly as the morning went on, the coughing went away and the doctors cleared her for surgery.<\/p>\n
She went in at 12:15pm.\u00c2\u00a0 Dr. G finally came to us about 3:45 and told us all went great, no complications, no surprises.\u00c2\u00a0 Praise God!<\/p>\n
Lainey was moved to her room around 5pm.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s been sleeping on and off since then (mostly on) and honestly seems a little miffed about the whole situation.\u00c2\u00a0 Can’t say I blame her.\u00c2\u00a0 She has a sore mouth (which we’ve not seen the inside of yet), a bruised and swollen\u00c2\u00a0 ear (from where they took the cartilidge out), stitches in 3 places on her nose holding a wad of gauze in her nostril, and stitches above her lip.\u00c2\u00a0 I’d be having mood issues myself!<\/p>\n
It’s 8:20pm now, Randy has gone downstairs to get us some dinner and then he’s heading home to be with the big kids.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ll stay here for the night, Randy will bring the kids to the hospital tomorrow.\u00c2\u00a0 She’s beginning to wake up more as the night goes on, so we’ll start giving her more water with the syringe (she’s had that once so far).\u00c2\u00a0 Today she’s allowed only clear liquids, tomorrow she can upgrade to full liquids.\u00c2\u00a0 Woo hoo :)<\/p>\n
Seeing your child wheeled into surgery isn’t fun, and the tears came as usual.\u00c2\u00a0 I’m so thankful it’s over…her 3rd surgery in her 3 years.\u00c2\u00a0 With at least that many to come in her life.\u00c2\u00a0 Thank you to those who thought of us and prayed for us.<\/p>\n
Hope to share a few pics tomorrow :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
