Update from the hospital!

We just received wonderful news that Laura is now in recovery. Both the general and plastic surgeon's said everything went well. She will be in recovery for a couple of hours before we can see her. The expanders are in place and Laura was given 150 cc's of saline to get the stretching started. We are anxiously awaiting to see her early this evening amd hoping that the anesthethia does not cause too much nausea. Big sighs of relief and thank you to all of you who have been praying for us today.

Thank you for the update, I've been slightly obsessively checking all day. Sending anti upset tummy thoughts Laura's way. Hang in there all and I'll pamper you next week when I arrive.

Yippee!! I knew it would all go smooth. Laura, you're amazing! You'll be back on your feet in no time. You're right....boobies are just another appendiage (sp)of our body.

Yay!!! So glad she's in recovery! Thank you so much for the update. I've been thinking about her all day. I'm sure getting past this will be a huge relief to everyone. All I can say from recent surgery experience is keep the cold wash cloths handy if nausea hits. They do wonders! Thinking of you guys. Hugs, Amber
