Guest guest Posted September 7, 1999 Report Share Posted September 7, 1999 Hi, Keven here. Today Phyllis and I took to Primary Childrens' Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah for surgery. got a food tube and a Nissen ring (not sure of spelling -- but a ring on her esof... (lower throat) to keep the food to stay down. (Even spell checkers can't help when I can't get enough of the word out.) Surgery went well. We got there by 9am. They took her at 11am. Surgery took 1 hour, recovery 45 min. We met her again as they took her to her room (~~12:45). Oh yea, is 3 1/2 yrs. 34 inches, ~~ 20 lbs. Sorry, I didn't follow her stats as they weighed her. She and Phyllis are doing well as expected. Its really sad to see laura wake up from the pain killers and cry. She left us with smiles and full of trust. Now she comes back and is frightened, in pain, and you can see it in her eyes. This young, I know she will forget it, but it can sure get to the parents. Well, this is just an update. They said 4-5 days at hospital. I suspect after this first night, Phyllis will wish for a motel room. The small couch provided won't give her a good night rest. Family is doing fine. Other kids are in school now so I don't half to worry about (much) there care. Keven kpmiller@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
