Saree and I were able to go back to Robbie's pod and feed him a full bottle. After 15 hours of nothing to eat he didn't waste much time taking the bottle down. He is still a little groggy from the surgery so he is going to sleep for quite a while now. Saree is going to come back tonight around 9:00 p.m. and try to feed him. With his sutures it makes it a little awkward to try to position his head without bothering them.
What we thought was going to be a few stitches turned out to be a lot more than we were prepared for. I wouldn't know by looking or have we heard from the surgery team, but it looks like at least 15-20 stitiches. It's going to take awhile for them to heal and he is going to have to have them removed in a few weeks.
He is really resting well now and we hope that he can do that for quite a while.

ReplyDeleteSaree and Mike, you are doing a great job of keeping us informed with the blog. So thankful that Robbie seems to have come through the surgery with flying colors. Any word on when you will be coming home? We keep prayers going up...
