Phew!

Madeleine is out of surgery and everything went great. The surgeon talked with us for quite a while and said that things couldn't have gone better. We're obviously elated.

In terms of recovery, Madeleine is in some pain and they are going to keep her fairly sedated tonight. So long as she recovers well, they will trial her with pedialyte tomorrow and then will slowly work her feeds up. So long as that goes well, we could be out as early as Monday. We always know that Madeleine could take a down turn but so far, things have gone exceedingly well.

Thanks- we'll post updates throughout the weekend. At some point we'll also get a camera in here so that we can post some pictures without tape on her face. She looks great but it is going to take some getting used to seeing her whole face.
