Myla still in surgery

Myla has been in surgery for 6 hours now. They have completed the removal of the bone spur and released the split portion of her cord. They are now working on the non split portion to detether (release) it. They are starting a blood transfusion. We were hoping to get by without this, but thats not the case. Trusting God the blood is pure and that her body does great with it. This morning went well. We were actually a little late arriving because dad over slept! Ha no really it just took longer to get out the door. It was super cold and wet outside. Myla arrived styling her pink panda pjs! So snuggly and warm. Knowing they needed blood to cross and type they decided to try to get an IV needle in where they just stick her one time. They were forewarned that she is a hard stick. Well unfortunately after many tears, the poor baby, they didn't get a vein. We waited a while and the lab people came in and got a vein first try. Glad of that but hate Myla had to endure all the pain and discomfort of being held down. Other than that, she did great! She is such a trooper". Hope to update when she is out of surgery.
