Kaelyn is Tubeless!

So, the removal of the tube was very simple and quick. She did not even need anesthesia. I though that the docs would want to watch her for a few hours but they just sent us home after we were all done. I didn't feel comfortable leaving Salt Lake so we stayed in the city for a few hours after. She did just fine. No fevers and feeling well. So far so good!

Now we just wait and watch.

Tube is coming out!

Kaelyn will be going in on Friday, yes this friday, at 9 am to get her biliary drain taken out. I am in a little bit of shock that it is so soon (as if a year wasn't enough time to get used to the idea!!). But this is what we have been waiting for right. We are going to do it as an outpatient surgery and just watch her for any signs of infection at home. Hopefully nothing will present itself and Kaelyn can have a tube free weekend!!!!! She hasn't been without some sort tube sticking out of her body since this all began in May of 2004. I am really nervous and excited. Our ward here in Tooele is going to have a special fast for Kaelyn on Friday and will be attending the 7 pm session at the Salt Lake Temple for her. If anyone would like to join in with the fast or attend the Temple in your area please do. She needs prayers and angels. I will update as I can on friday to let you know how it goes...the tube removal should be uneventful, it will just be the watching for infection part that I am a little unsettle with.

Love to all,

Angie

PS - I just put a few new photos on the flickr account - they include Jacob's birthday and both of the kids first days of school. Kaelyn also has been putting herself to sleep all by herself (First time ever!!!) so we rewarded her with a Dora bed - one of the pictures has her in this bed just loving it!
