Ari's surgery went well today. She will be sedated for the next few days to allow her to heal, she's also on a ventilator (breathing tube). Unfortunately, she woke up twice and was very upset. One of those times they were adjusting the breathing tube and stitching it back in place when she woke up. Carlos and I are just feeling like we can't take our eyes off of her. But they have been great about getting her right back under sedation.
So we are just trying to trust God, once again. We are so anxious but trying to keep in mind of how faithful God has been. They didn't have to make an incision in the rib area to get cartilage as they were originally planning. They had enough from her larynx. They didn't have to make two cuts in the airway to widen it, the doctor was able to make one. They almost doubled her airway size. The plan is Tues. they will take out the breathing tube and see how she does breathing on her own. So God has been good to us and has made our little Ari strong.
We finally got a new camera, so there will be new pics of her...enjoy.
