Surgery
Well the doctor came Christmas Eve and checked there eyes again and they were worse so they scheduled surgery for yesterday. The Surgery went well on both girls. They're in a lot of pain this morning and fussing a lot but there eyes are doing good so far. So basically the girls because of the surgery have lost their peripheral vision, but at least they will be able to see. They had to put both girls back on the ventilator and on pavulon to hold them still during the surgery. Pavulon is what Sofira was on for her lung. This morning however they have jumped back off the ventilator and CPAP and cannula even, Sofira is breathing just room air now with no aid of anything at all. Jade is not far behind her, shes on a little medicine from the surgery still so they will wait till that wares off before they try her without the cannula as well. Oh Sofira is 4 and 1/2 lbs now and Jade is up to 5+ pounds. With the girls off of anything to help them breath, the biggest thing they need to accomplish now is being able to eat on there own. Which means Beth is gonna have to start going in every 3 hrs for the next week or so, fun fun. Thanks again for all your prayers, it helps a lot.
