Surgery Update


Emily's surgery went very well. She had a rough four days of pain and struggled to eat, but has since gotten herself organized and is eating and babbling more than ever! Her ENT is pleased with her recovery and has cleared her for table foods! Yea Emily!

She is doing very well with all the new foods she is getting to eat but is still struggling with her bottles... quite the messy drinker! Apparently drinking is harder for some kids than eating so we are giving Emily a few more weeks to get used to her new tongue and figure things out a little better. Her speech therapist is very pleased with her progress however and thinks she'll get it down soon! There have been many curve balls and adjustments Emily has had to overcome, but she continues to show great resolve and won't let a little prematurity stop her!
