We are back to the daily grind this week after all the excitement of last weekend. Ellis has had a great week and enjoyed a visit from BFF Beatrice. I love watching these two little precious babes run and play together!
Monday we will take Ellis for two very important appointments. First, she will have a swallowing study to determine if she is ready to take more food by mouth. Prayers appreciated for great results! And then we will be making our first visit ever to her plastic surgeon. There are no procedures planned at this time, but he will be evaluating her case for the first time and discussing options with us for future reconstruction. More prayers appreciated! We are very hopeful and nervous at the same time.
I was scanning through some older posts this week and thought I would share this picture from two years ago this week. It was just a few days before Ellis had her trach put in, when she was still in the RCNIC. I remember this like it was yesterday. She was so tiny and was so sick and was having trouble breathing. In spite of all that, we managed to get her down to the playroom, cords and monitors and all, so she could have a change of scenery and laugh a little at some blinky toys. I am so thankful for better days.
More updates later this week!
