Seraph Update

Seraph is getting better, but slowly.  They have yet to extubate her.  They don't want to take the tube out too soon.  She's having trial runs where it doesn't breath for her.  The heart and lung machine makes you get very bloated.  She's still too bloated...they have her on several diuretics to help the swelling gone down.

Naptime!

Hey, it's a nice, dark, quiet spot....as long as no one turns on the disposal :)

Seraph's doing great :)

Her surgery went well.  She's sleeping comfortably today.  

During the surgery, the nurse comes out every 30-60 minutes to tell you how things are going.  Haqon decided that next time we need to tell the nurse to just walk in the room with a thumbs up if things are going OK.  A whole eternity can pass in the time it takes the nurse to walk across the room, squat down, politely ask how you are doing, and then go into details on how your baby's surgery is going.

She looks great.  I didn't take pictures this time.  She's in a crib instead of a glass box this time.  She has all the tubes and wires as last time, but she's 3 times as big....so they don't overwhelm her nearly as much as last time.
