SUCCESS!

Isabelle's procedure went GREAT! They started at 9 am and it only lasted about 45 minutes and they didn't even have to take her to the operating room - it was all bed side. The scar is a little less than an inch long and she's doing awesome! Here is a picture of her right after surgery:

No more silo!!!!! We spent a few hours alone together earlier this evening, and it was absolutely magical. She was awake and alert and I held her hand and told her how proud I am of her for being so strong. <3 I finally stopped holding back my tears and cried out of pure happiness for everything we've overcome. Thanks to all of my readers for the wonderful support we've received from all of you. I'll write more tomorrow guys!
