Rosie Is Mended. UPDATED

Just a brief note to let everyone know that the surgery is done and Rosie is fine. We were able to hold her and stay with her right until she went to sleep and she is now in recovery. They had to use 2 coils as one alone could not do the job.

I will update later.

Everyone here at Miami Children's Hospital have been wonderful.

Love from, 2 very relieved parents and one big sister.

We were told this morning that we should be able to go home today however that didn't happen so we are here for the night. Rosie is doing very well. She didn't do to well coming out of the anaesthesia so they immediately sedated her and when she came to that time she was much better. She ate a huge amount for dinner and is now asleep. It is so odd to see her attached to all of these wires and the first time her heart monitor went off I nearly needed one but I am used to it now as it literally goes off every few minutes whilst she is awake.
Since I think this will be a sleepless night I am going to go and take a nap while all is quiet. I am sure just as I fall asleep that bloody heart monitor will start screeching.
As a final note: the staff here are truly fabulous. A whole lot better than the ones in the cardiologists office.

  7. Thank goodness that's over now. I hope she wasn't too much of a handful, I can't imagine her putting up with monitoring very easily.

    I hope you all got a good nights sleep and that you get home as soon as possible.

    Lots of Love Andie
