Ella's surgery today went fine, she woke up angry and hungry but didn't want to swallow of course. Her discomfort continued even with Tylenol... so, because the doctor had encouraged us to take her home after a few hours and knowing she'd be more comfortable here, I did bring her home.
The sounds must be louder to her because the doctor said he drained a LOT of yucky thick stuff out of her ears. He found one of her previous tubes lying inside of her ear drum. The other one was already gone. New tubes are in, we hope they last. Her tonsils were removed and so were her adenoids, so hopefully we'll hear a difference in her breathing soon! And her hearing!
She's a mommy's girl today and is sitting with me right now with her head buried on my chest. I feel so much love for this baby girl, there is no way to explain it. Thank you for praying us through this day. Thank you, Heavenly Father for blessing our little Ella and guiding the surgeon's hands and tools.

So glad to hear everything went well. I'm hoping to hear a report soon that her breathing and hearing have improved! :)
I so glad she's doing well. I think Zech needs this to. Hope she starts hearing well soon.
Hugs...

I am relieved to hear everything went well for Ella, praying this resolves her issues with breathing.
