We found a new doctor. His name is Dr. Willits ... HE IS AMAZING!!! He said that Megyn needed a surgery for both feet. LETS HOPE THEY WORKED THIS TIME.
Megyn underwent surgery on July 16th and July 25th. We did stay over night for pain management.
July 16th was surgery for the right foot. The surgery took about 3 1/2 hours and afterwards she was in so much pain. She didn't want to eat or drink. Her kidneys weren't working either. She just cried and wanted her momma. She finally, after 32 hours, used the bathroom and they allowed us to come home. She also ate some McDonald's fries. Once we got home she started drinking and ate a bit more. On Friday though, her sisters came home and she cheered right up. She really loves them. She started learned to crawl around and felt so much better. Craig and I felt awful about having to do the surgery on the left foot.
July 25th, Megyn had surgery on her left foot. The surgery took about 2 1/2 hours and Dr. Willits was pleased with how the right foot already looked after only a week. Megyn drank while in recovery and seemed to handle the pain some much better this time. The Saint Francis Children's Hospital did a great job at helping manage Megyn's pain this time. They were so helpful and kind. We went home the next day about 1:30 and Megyn already wanted to play. She ate a ton and hasn't really complained much of pain. She is only in pain when she moves a lot or when she wakes up.
She is back to being our Squishy Bear. She is learning to crawl around and tell her sisters where to take her and what she wants to do.
