Emma's second surgery came with only one day's notice!! We were planning to have the surgery in December but the opportunity came to have it in September and get it done and over with. The nurses were so amazing during this surgery. Emma had her stuffed zebra with her and they made sure to give her an IV so that she could match Emma. Then, they let Emma take the zebra into surgery with her and she came out with a matching cast! It really helped to put us all at ease. The surgery went great but the next day Emma had some sort of allergic reaction to something and her face swelled up. We gave her Benadryl and watched her for a day but we ended up taking her into urgent care and we got some stronger medicine to help. It eventually went back to normal but we still aren't positive what she reacted to. Now she just has to wear a brace for six more weeks and this whole fiasco will finally be over!
