Here is a picture of Eleanor after her surgery. The doctor says it went very well. They were able to do it lapriscopically and also were able to do a muscle biopsy for more testing. Ellie looks great without anything on her face. They think they might be able to start feeding her again tomorrow. She is on the vent for now, but we are hoping they will be able to quickly wean her off of it again.
Praise the Lord! What a beautiful little girl... can't wait to kiss those cheeks! Love you guys.

Good news on Ellie's surgery. We are so happy for all of you.
ReplyDeleteGive grandpa & grandma "O" a hug for us,
we think of your family often.
Wonderful news! I met a mom and her 20 month old little girl today. She had a trach and a g-tube too (and hearing aids). I stopped to say hi to the mom and get my kids to smile at the little girl. I told the mom about you and she shared their story which was remarkably similar to yours. They hope to have the trach and the G tube removed soon the mom said.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful news!!! I have been following your website and checking for updates regularly, for weeks now. I am enjoying watching Ellie overcome each and every obstacle, day by day. I must say that you are one very strong and loving family! My thoughts and prayers are with you. Best wishes to you and your family, especially your precious Ellie!
ReplyDeleteAnother prayer answered. So glad to hear that surgery was successful. It is so nice to see that cute little face. You are in our prayers daily.
ReplyDeleteDon't know Ellie. Don't know any of you. But I pray for you all every day and look forward to hearing "Everything's all right!!"
ReplyDeletePraising God for the miracle of healing. Ellie looks to be resting peacefully as we are all growing in faith and confidence in our great God. He truly works everything for our good.
ReplyDeleteHere's a hug from me.
