Update
Emma's surgery went very well. She is still recovering and is not quite back to her old self yet but she is getting better every day.
The ENT said that her vocal cords are both moving. The Left fold has a nodule on it that should go away on its own. The right cord is very very swollen and is red. The ENT was not sure what caused that or why it was that way. He thinks that both of them will heal over time. She still has trachial malasia and a new thing bronchial malasia. He feels that all of this should heal with time and said that he doesn't need to see her again unless she is still horse in a year or so.
The g-tube surgery went well also. It will be much easier for us to deal with than the NG. Emma has a pump to deliver food so we no longer have to push food in with a syringe. That will be a god send when dealing with Emma and Kayla because they seem to need to eat at the same time and there is no way that one could push food into Emma and feed Kayla. Emma is sore and is not up to full feeds yet. She is having some trouble readjusting to food so we are keeping an eye on that.
Kayla is doing well. Liz's mom came to watch her while Emma was having surgery/ in the hospital. Kayla is getting bigger every day and is so fun to have around. She is getting better with sleeping through the night. We are really excited to be able to have both girls on a schedule of where they can be in bed by 7:30 and sleep all night long.... It may be awhile. Her thrush is still not gone. I guess it can take awhile
We will have to post pictures later... just wanted to let everyone know the latest on Emma and Kayla.
