Izabell's simple ear tube surgery.......... NOT!
Izabell was admitted after the surgery so we are staying at the hospital tonight. The Dr did not get to put in ear tubes. On the first incision her ear drum started to bleed heavily and they spent a lot of time stopping the bleeding. She has very abnormal vasculature and allot of hemangiomas and the Dr was worried that they may have nicked a important artery. After it stopped they sent her to get a CTA scan to make sure there was no bleeding in her brain or anywhere else.When I went into recovery she was crying and yelling but was just scared and had a bad headache. She is doing OK sore tired cranky and hungry but no more bleeding so far. As long as she has no bleeding she will be able to come home tomorrow. Ear tubes are no longer an option and she will get a hearing aid when her ear drum heals. My phone is not working (great day for the battery to fry) The surgeon today has worked with Izabell and us since she was a baby and he said only Izabell would be this tricky! lol! I am glad he was her Dr today since he knows her so well. I am exhausted now hope that we will be able to get some sleep here tonight.

I'm sorry Wyndi. That is a whole lot of headache for nothing. At least they got the bleeding under control. I hope you're both able to get some sleep and get home soon.
feeling bad I missed this one, praying her ear has healed and that all is well!!!!
