What a tough girl!
September 25, she’s out of surgery and looks good. She’ll be back in the OR to check the area for growth and reapply the vacuum. Hopefully in two weeks the cultures are still negative and the new cultures too. At that point, if appropriate, they go into OR and put a permanent pacemaker in. October 1, Halia goes into OR at 12. Can’t eat until after, so lots of crying, and I’m heartbroken as always. Chest looks good, but tissue needs to look better, so they might go to the other side for next week pacemaker plan. Halia absolutely doesn’t want to be under anesthesia. She fights it, and they must give her more than what you would think. Bless her. They took out one of the tubes.
