So tomorrow we begin another round of expansion. Sophie is having 2 more expanders put in, likely one in front and one in back again. Her surgery is at 12:30 and so her fasting schedule is much like last weeks for the MRI which went really well. I don't have the results back yet but the Dr's initial reaction was that everything looked fine. Anyways I am not looking forward to her coming out of anaesthetic again so soon, you feel so helpless when they are so miserable. Anyways we are not going to have to stay overnight, I would imagine it would be many weeks before we worry about injecting. So for now here are my prayer requests:
1. the surgery
2. the recovery 24 hrs after surgery
3. no post op infection (this is especially important as it is the week before Christmas and we are going out of town as is the Dr.)
4. this round of expansion will be successful (I keep thinking that since they are putting in balloons 3 and 4 and 1 in 4 supposedly fail means that one of these is doomed but Craig gently reminded me that is not how statistics work and is definitely NOT how God works, I am so blessed to have Craig around!) Well thats it, please say a word of prayer for us tomorrow. I will update on #1 and 2 soon. Thank you all. Amanda
