It’s complicated…

This is Michelle after she got to put on the new hospital gown her Grandma sewed just for her. No more stinking gowns that constantly fall off, have broken snaps, and wad up in the back. Now we will use these fancy gowns, and obviously they do more than just look better. They boost Michelle’s spirits.

And then Child Life showed up with this baby and we were off.

Yep, these gowns rock!

Then they realized she might never come back, and the team came and got her.  They took her back to the OR where she got to have watermelon smelly stuff in the big green balloon and then a nice long nap.

We sat and did our wait, that no matter how many times we do it, it never gets easy. Then the doctors came and talked with us. Well…it’s complicated. So complicated that they have no firm answers or plans right now. They want time to sit and mull it over and think about all the angles. And that is just fine.

One more test tomorrow, a day to recuperate and then we are going home.

Does your mom make those for adults? I'd rather wear that than the regular hospital gowns. Super cute!

Thanks for the updates and hopefully today will bring some answers for you!

You are all brave . . .

True princesses deserve a beautiful gown.

I would have just kept on walking with that stroller if I were her too. Hope the answers come soon.

She is a princess and obviously has a fairy grandmother with sewing skills! :)
