Living life one day at a time as a family of six...3 busy and bouncy boys and 1 Ukrainian princess. Our third son Joaquin was our unexpected blessing who came to us with a little something extra called Down syndrome and inspired us to adopt Sofia an orphan we fell in love with through Reece's Rainbow. We hope that our story will help open people's eyes to the beauty and gift that ALL children are. We are all more alike than different!

Tears Are Flowing...It's a Good Thing!
Little Miss Sofia had her tear duct surgery today and all went well. The doctor was able to probe both ducts and balloon one side but not the other but they feel that surgery was successful and that all should be flowing well now!
She charmed all the nurses and doctors in the children's surgery center and did really well during the surgery and coming out of anesthesia. She seemed to recover quickly in the morning but had a little relapse in the afternoon with some vomiting of fluids. She was more cranky than she's ever been today as well, poor little girl. Hopefully tomorrow she will feel like herself again.
Thank goodness for our healthy girl. And if she should need to cry (and we hope that she doesn't too often), she can now cry with tears and all!

happy to read the op went well, and if she needs to cry (which I hope not too often) there will be real tears. She looks so cute in her hospital outfit!!! Hugs to her
ReplyDeleteAww! Bless her heart! I pray she'll be right back to herself too.
ReplyDeleteShe is the cutest little girl and her transformation is beyond amazing. Glad her surgery went well !!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it all went well! Josi had this same surgery many, many years ago. I was just thinking the other day that Nadia doesn't seem to have the "watery-eye" issues that Josi had so I'm guessing we won't need that particular surgery this time around. :)
ReplyDeleteHope she's feeling better today!
Hooray for successful surgeries! And tears! She sure is a cutie.
