Leah's Surgery


The doctors confirmed this morning that they will be doing skin grafting on Leah. The concern is that she is so small that they will have to take skin from a variety of places. Just a reminder, her surgery is at 12 noon (EST)/11AM CST.
Ellie still had a low-grade fever this morning but is doing much better (it was at 103 before going to bed and is was just a hair above 100 before her morning dose of Tylenol). I think the worst is behind us, though she despises taking her medicine. She's been sitting in bed with her Fisher-Price blood pressure cuff, a real doctor's stethoscope, and her new temporal thermometer by her side or on her lap. We've read "Berenstain Bears Go to the Doctor" more times than I care to say. I think would could both repeat it from memory.
