Surgury number 3

Findley's surgery went well. It was only a day surgury, so we were out of the hospital by 3pm(ish) which was really nice. The surgeon is letting us take care of her aftercare instead of ordering a daily visit from the nurse. We have a surgical clinic visit in about three weeks to review the recovery and healing of the surgury.

A nice thing happened while being discharged. When Findley was recovering from her 2nd surgury, her doctor/surgeon went on a two week leave and another staff surgeon took over Findley's case.

While we were being discharged by our surgeon, the replacement surgeon walked in to take care of something, and our surgeon mentioned to him who Findley was ("This is Findley Blair"). The 2nd surgeon couldn't believe Findley's progress and was just a little taken by her.

It's really nice to see (from the Doctors) that your kid isn't just a body part that needs to be fixed, but is a person and someone's child. That was really nice to see from both of them.

Great news! It looks like the whole family is doing well (but could probably use more sleep)
