Surgery started on time, and even almost ended on time, only 20 minutes late! He slept for probably two hours and hasn't been up much overall. They were able to get the opening they wanted which was the whole goal of the day. Dr. E did a little more on the right side to bring that down a little if possible, but really the results we have already are pretty good in the world of LM. We'll try to do a little more sclerotherapy, maybe next time (2-3 months) and lots of airway lasering.
Micah lost a front tooth in the process, something isn't right that his teeth come out this easy. They didn't do anything in the airway this time. Hopefully today will lead to good results in the future. The docs were pleased when they came in, and that doesn't happen much. :)
He's fast asleep, and now we're playing the pain game... trying not to over medicate him but still have his pain well managed. Morphine and tylenol will hopefully be all we need... Dr. E and i agreed that we are here for pain management and not the drain... So that should shorten our stay. Hopefully we can get out Sunday or Monday... that would be SUPER. We already have to be here Thursday for a post op visit. Still no word on whether her needs iGG. it's about a 5 hour affair, no big deal if we're going to be here but the results may not come in for a couple of days... Silly labs. Maybe it'll be something we do Thursday when we're here.
We're on a different floor than usual, so no familiar faces :( And no spoiled rottenness. Hopefully we can get to the playroom tomorrow though if he's up to it!
