Minor Surgery

Eileen had minor day surgery today at the Children’s Hospital for her left clogged tear duct.  It was a big decision to go forward with the surgery as it involved anesthesia. When the nurses brought Eileen back to the waiting room they said she did really well and that she was tough.  No surprise there, Eileen is very tough! She was fussy, but I was able to breastfeed her and she calmed down. The doctor told me it was good we went forward with the surgery because the clog was all the way down to her nose and there was no way it would’ve resolved itself.  So, surgery and anesthesia were inevitable.  Eileen is recovering very well, she had a big nap when we got home and we just got back from a walk.  

Ewan went to day care today (the kids started day care on January 2, 2019), this was the first day they have spent apart. When Ewan came home, he ran over to Eileen and I! He’s so sweet!!
