Amazingly, the day didn't even drag -- with the constant whirlwind of nurses and girls being brought in and out, we stayed pretty busy! We spent a couple of hours after all the surgeries doling out popsicle chunks and snuggling while everyone rested a little. Not so bad!
Ems and Laney were united in mutual contempt toward the IV. At one point Laney tried to help free Emma from hers... What a helper!
"I have to cough and I can't!" Poor Emma... I really feel bad that they all have coughs, but she especially is having pain. She cries whenever she needs to yawn or cough.
The night ended up pretty horrible, complete with vomit and at least one girl waking up screaming every hour. Hopefully it will all be worth it and they will be better able to breathe and swallow soon!
