We are so happy to share that Audrey did very well in surgery today! They started about 7:30 and had her in the PICU around noon, just as expected! She looked wonderful as they wheeled her down the hall on the way to the PICU, and her anesthesiologist even told us to give her a kiss while he briefly removed her oxygen mask- what a sweet gesture! The first 24-48 hours will be her toughest, but so far, so good. The swelling is starting to set in this evening, but it was so nice seeng her look like she was just napping immediately after surgery. She even came out with her little curly-q on the top of her head perfectly intact!
Her color has definitely changed- now she has rosy pink lips and toes;
no longer a splotchy purple! What a relief it is to have this huge procedure behind us. We will focus on her recovery and keeping her comfortable now. We'll try to update soon when I can actually type without misspelling every other word; sleep deprivation is starting to take over ;)
The power of prayer is just amazing and I'm confident they have all been answered thus far! Love to all!!
