In the Hospital

| Just waking up in the hospital-not too happy We are done and Laurel is home. We were actually home by 12:30. That's because we had to be there at 7am. It was exhausting but it's over! The implant is in. The Doctor said they had a bit of a tough time getting it in because of the anatomy of her ear. Apparently, all of the ear infections that she had the first 2 years in the orphanage have scarred the inside of her ears so it made things a little harder. However, it is in place and we will get it turned on in 4 weeks and will hopefully know at that point if it's going to work for her. Please continue to pray that it will help her. Laurel has to wear her ear bandage for 3 days (that should prove challenging) and is on 10 days worth of antibiotics. Tonight she felt like little bugs were crawling on her..... not sure which drug causing that. Hopefully tomorrow we'll be off the Tylenol Codeine. When she woke up from the surgery she was a bit loopy but asked the nurse if "She'd put the Ear Plant in yet?" Thank you all for your prayers. We felt the Lord's peace. |

Definitely the codeine! They gave me that after the surgery for chiari and it made me itch horribly!
BTW...still praying!!! So nice to see her today!!
Ok, thanks Amy. THAT solves why she was itching so bad!

Praying for your sweet girl!
I LOVE the cracker picture! I think you should send that one with your yearly report to the Ukrainian Embassy! HA! Seriously, though, I'll be praying that the implant is a HUGE success for little sweetie pie! Hope you guys are enjoying your summer so far even with this surgery.
