Pre op testing complete! We just spent the entire day at the hospital!🏥 Emily was a trooper as always and did great staying still during all her tests!👍 Only mishap was having to draw her blood! 4 tubes! She was crying so bad and it took forever to get them all filled! Then on the last tube the nurse drops the tube and splatters it all over the floor, so now lets make that 5 tubes! I was so mad!!!😠 This mama handled it well. At first I snapped and said ARE YOU SERIOUS???? The look on the nurses face was filled with shame and guilt. I quickly calmed and told myself accidents happen! But seriously????? After all her tests were done we met with the surgeon one last time. He said her tricuspid valve is leaking more and fluid is building up in her artery. Her breathing is becoming heavier as well. So this is the optimal time for surgery! I cried alot today sitting in that hospital😢 Knowing the next time we are here, all of these little things she went through today, will be nothing compared to our next visit. We signed consents for surgery and its all so real now! At 6:30a.m January 5th I will be handing my baby over to a team of surgeons. I will put her life in there hands and it will be days before she is in my arms again😢 One of the most heartbreaking💔 things they informed us of today is that her big sister will not be allowed to see her during her stay😦 With the flu on the rise they have made it policy that no child under 18 is permitted in the PICU. I understand, I really do, but kaylas feelings are so hurt that she cant be in to see her baby sister. This may be for the best though. Seeing her sister hooked up to all those machines and tubes may not be the best thing. Kaylas grandma will still bring her down for regular visits with us and we will make the best of our time with her👪 Going to try and find a day over the weekend for some relaxation and quite time to clear my mind and be the strong mommy my girls need and deserve me to be! If I may ask you all to please share Emilys page and spread the word as far as we can reach for all the prayers we can get for a successful outcome! It means the world to our family! I hope you all have a blessed and beautiful day! Thank you all for your prayers and your comforting words! #TEAMEMILY ✊💞
