All done!

Sofia is finished with her surgery and is recovering in the icu.  The surgery went fine but there was more granulation tissue and bleeding than expected so it took longer and may require more followup.  She will be sedated for the next few days so we don't expect her to wake up today.

Right now she is intubated through her nose as her trach is completely sealed!  On Mon the Dr will scope her again and the plan is to attempt extubatution on Tues and keep her in the icu for a week after that.  The key now is for her airway to maintain integrity so she doesn't need to be trached again!

Glad the surgery is done.
I am very patient to wait for the comments from doctors at CHOP for next few days after surgery.
I trust and hope all results are positive and encouraging for Sofia.
