Everyone is doing fine today. We are getting ready to go see Zelie in the NICU.
Momma is doing well. Recovering quickly, but not pushing it.
Zelie's back closure surgery went well. Neurosurgery said that no major nerve roots were in the exposed area. They were able to remove the breathing tube right after surgery and she is already kicking and squirming. This is one strong baby. She can pick her head up. She is quite the charmer too -- nurses are already fighting over caring for her. Keep in mind that the NICU is full of tiny babies, so Ms. Zelie is something of a novelty for the staff there.
This week is monitoring and consults with other specialists for other aspects of her health.

Oh Zelie, you sound like one great little girl and a real charmer, with all those nurses wanting to look after you. Can't wait to see some photographs. Lots of love to mummy and daddy and you.
