Update...
When we got to the hospital, we found that the head surgeon had called the surgery off. He did another xray and the intestines appear to be fine.
They’re going to keep her hooked up to everything, do another xray tonight, then another tomorrow. Hopefully the blockage is something that will resolve itself. She’s sleeping in her little plastic box, tubes and wires everywhere, completely at ease.
The power of prayer is awesome!
Praise God, I’m so happy for all of you! James and Vlad had hormone issues as infants, and had to have blood tests and some other tests, and that was awful for me. I would sing to them during the blood-drawing, and the black Baptist practical nurses would raise their hands and croon, “Amen, little baby!” If one of the babies had to have surgery, it would have been horrible in spades!
I’m keeping you all in my prayers. If you get a chance, hug the new mommy and the precious gift she has been given from Auntie ‘Face!
And hug yourself, too!
Good news!
Take care.
