Surgery Update

Thank you so much for all of your prayers. Tessa's surgery for tubes went well. Her right ear is really infected and inflamed, so she will have some blood and drainage for a couple days, but we will be finishing up her oral antibiotic and also starting her on some antibiotic ear drops. She had a little trouble recovering from the anesthesia, so they monitored her for a little while after the surgery. We were at the hospital from 9:30 to 2:00....so it made for a long day, but we are so thankful it's done and hope she'll start feeling better! We won't be able to put her ears on for a few days....which already seems to be a little frustrating for her, so we'll be doing lots of snuggling and lots of silly animations for our little-miss-social's entertainment pleasure :)


She wasn't exactly sure what was going on...but she knew it was all about her...and that was quite alright!

Nothing like getting to squeeze your Daddy's hand right before surgery...precious

She was such a little trooper considering it had been 4 hours since her last meal!!


So peaceful in her Daddy's arms after she recovered from being sick from the anesthesia.


I'm usually the one behind the camera...but you can be sure I got my share of lovin too! :)

  3. Yay! So happy to hear her surgery went well! Her pics are precious! She is such a little beauty =) We're praying that the tubes will be more beneficial than the doctors even expect and that she'll be hearing better day after day!
