Lillian's surgery went off without a hitch! Thank you everyone for thinking and praying for us that day! It may have been a minor surgery, but it still had me shaking in my shoes. It's never fun to have to see your kid wake up from anesthesia and they are scared. That was the hardest part of the entire 10 minute procedure!
Her post op appointment went well. The doc was really pleased with her eyes. In fact, one of her therapist today noticed a change already. We are all kinda shocked that her eyes are doing so well in a short amount of time!

I did want to say that the nurses and staff at the hospital were TERRIFIC! They treated Lillian like a superstar that morning. When we arrived and they wanted me to put her gown on her, there was the sweetest little teddy bear on her bed, just waiting. It was a very nice gift from the hospital. One of the nurses even brought a wagon and gave her a ride down the hall!
And another great surprise! Today in the mail, Lillian got a card from the nurses and doctors who worked with her. I'm not sure if all hospitals do that, but it was really nice of them to do so. They all signed it too!
Hey....if you get a chance, over to the right is a picture link to a military spouses/girlfriend competition. I could really use some more votes...Please!
Stopping by from sits! :) Your daughter is adorable! She looks so cute in that medical cap. My niece has Down Syndrome too. She's four this year, and each year she never ceases to amaze me with every step she takes. They make every little step seem so much more valuable.
ReplyDeleteShe's soooo cute! I'm glad it went well.

ReplyDeleteSo glad it went well! My son had minor dental surgery and had to be put under so I know how tough the anesthesia is young kids. Glad she's ok!
