All done now 
The surgery went well, and the early stages of recovery were ok as well. To test her stomach's ability to handle food again they have her on a feeding schedule. The first feeding was 1oz of formula, as was the second feeding three hours later. Then came two 1.5oz feedings also three hours apart. We've just finished those. Two more 2 oz feedings to go at 9am and noon today, then in theory we can go home.

I can't wait for it all to be done. Sona normally eats 5oz bottles, and she hasn't eaten in 2 days now, so these little snacks are just pissing her off. Plus I'm sure she has some lingering pain from the surgery which would explain why she hardly sleeps and mostly cries. I want my own bed again, and I want to put her in real clothes with no wires or tubes attached. Noon can't come soon enough.

Meanwhile Alex is staying at my Mom and Dad's house in Racine. They have really helped out with him during this entire ordeal. They usually help out a lot, but this is beyond the norm. Thanks guys! I miss my boy though, can we have him back soon please?

One last piece of news, I'm posting this article from my brand new Dell Mini , thanks to my pal Noah. He's a champ, and so is my new tiny laptop.
