6 Weeks Post-Op

Today Audra is 6 weeks post-op from her Hemi! Wow! We never thought we would be saying that in July!! She was scheduled to have her Hemi on August 8. Her pre-op days were scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday. Things never seem to go as planned these days and we just try to go with it.

It feels so good to have 2 of the 3 required surgeries already in the past at this point. And now Audra is considered to be recovered from her surgery! She no longer seems in pain when she sneezes or coughs and things are settling into our normal.

We are getting back on the schedule with Audra's feeding pathologist so that we can make more progress with her feeding.

Also, we found out today that our pediatrician is on leave for the next few months. Not such a big deal for our older daughter but a pretty big deal for Audra. There are only 2 docs left in the practice - one we met with and doesn't really get that we need some extra help with Audra and the other only works part time. So we are looking for recommendations for a new pediatrician practice, I think.

But for right now we are going to sit back and enjoy the fact that Audra is doing well after two open heart surgeries!
