Haleigh's 2nd surgery

Haleigh had her second surgery on 12-29-201.

Haleigh did very well through her surgery. This one like the last took about two hours, I really love the staff at the surgery center, they are all so nice. I realize that is part of their job of taking care of us, but they seem like they really care about us. I feel like we are receiving top care. And of course our amazing Dr.C who is top career.

One thing that stands out for me about the center is they do not take your child from you crying. There is no pain involved in the before care. I carried Haleigh to the OR and held her as the nurse explained to Haleigh how she was going to blow in the mask and breath in.  Haleigh was not scared and went to sleep holding my hand. They started the IV after she was asleep and i was in recovery. Everyone has their own recovery waiting room where they bring in your child after surgery. You child never knows your not with them, its perfect.

Haleigh's surgery was at 730, she was in recovery with us us at 10. We left the hospital around 12. Haleigh slept a lot and  has needed some pain management, but was eating and playing between naps.

We could not have hoped for this to go any better

Happy New Year!
