Hi all,

Just called to get the update. They are both doing well.

Olivia was set to go in yesterday at 10:30a but they sterilized the

wrong side of metal. It took 3 hours to get the right stuff ready.

She ended up going in at 2:30p. was back with her at 6p. The

top rib on the left side was nice and solid. They were able to use it

as a great anchor point for the Veptr 2. Liv slept all night and has

been awake since 10a today. She has eaten a little bit and propped up

in bed a little bit. She's on moderate pain meds considering the

surgery she had!(Tordol and Lortab)

Please continue to pray for her recovery. Grandma is there now and her

cousins will be coming in the next few days. has a big

presentation on Monday there.

wanted me to thank all of you for your prayers and great

thoughts. Keep them coming!!

Thanks everyone for sending us your strength! I must make this update

short & sweet because Liv is not doing so well this morning. She has

thrown up 8 times this a.m. and you can imagine how painful that is after

back surgery! The surgery couldnt have gone better!!! Once she is better,

I'll give details.

Hope you all are doing very well! Welcome home, Mo! Thanks for sending

the update, Shell.

Love,

HRH

Dear - I can only image how hard it must be, based on my own

experience with painful surgeries and post-op....it's the hardest thing

that anyone can go through, in my opinion. I'd rather have the

pain myself, rather than for my child. I know it's not easy. Even

with the good news of the surgery, post-op like this can be so

hard. Pain meds, throwing up...I would also have been so

frustrated with the initial mistake and the surgery being delayed and

thus more starving....I hate the pre-op no food thing & often can't

eat myself, although I know I need the strength. We as parents

suffer with them, but try to provide strength in front of them.

My heart goes out to you. Many times, our children end up

stronger than us...and bounce back amazingly! You know that we

are all here WITH YOU, thinking about you and Liv and trying to send

you as much strength as possible!! As I know that we use your

strength when we are down. She is a super little girl and has a

SUPER STRONG MOMMY!

Sending thoughts, prayers, and as much strength as possible to you...

M.
