Surgery Successful

Amanda is too wiped out to post, so I'm covering for her tonight. This is just a quick update to say that Anara's surgery today to install, er, insert (what's the right term?) a feeding tube (G tube) was successful. The actual procedure was as quick as we were told it would be, but it was a long afternoon, nevertheless. Amanda helped give Anara her first feeding through the tube, which was an ounce of formula. She's been a little overwhelmed today at the thought of bringing Anara home and doing all of these things for her here, but we both know that we can stay at the hospital as long as we need to, and that we'll have plenty of support and help once we do come home.

Thanks again, everyone, for your prayers. The doctors and nurses all continue to say that Anara looks great.
