Surgery Day!

Thank you so much for all your prayers! They were answered, everything went well today. The only problem was getting the IV in her hand, they ended up putting it in her head- don't worry she was already asleep and in the operating room when they put it in. The surgery itself and recovery went well.

These pictures were taken before they took her in, she had some meds. that made her a little loopy (but still so cute). They were supposed to make her drousy, but she faught that so hard and wouldn't stop squirming. They did help her relax and forget that she hadn't had anything to eat since 12:45am (she would only drink an ounce for us, but we tried). She was so squirmy we just put her in the bed and let her role around, she would smile from time to time and of course love on her glow worm!

Ready for surgery- this medicine is so Good!
One last crossed eye picture!
Shortly after recovery! I didn't want to get too close, her eyes are really bloody. For a while her tears will also be bloody, so that is what the blood around her eyes is from. It didn't bother her when she opened her eyes, you can tell that she was curious about her new sight!
Cambria on the way home, holding onto her car seat toy- she actually stayed awake for a little bit.
Surgery was at 9 am and we were home a little after 12! She went straight to bed and at 4 o'clock is still asleep. We will see how she feels when she awakes- I am sure she will be ready for pain meds and food! Our sweet little angel is well and we praise the Lord for all He has done!

She looks so sweet. I can't wait to give her a big hug in a couple of weeks. I feel like the last time you all were down I didn't get to hold her that much.
