Sophie's 3-Week Progress

It has been exactly three weeks since Sophie's surgery. She breathes well. She is much more verbal and energetic. She already went from a vocabulary of 4 or 5 words to 15, and she is trying out a new word each day. A few weeks ago she weighed 19 1/2 lbs., and now she weighs 23! I haven't seen her looking tubby in over a year!
I am so grateful for medicine and technology. The doctor said that if she would have gotten this surgery 10 years ago, he would not have been able to get all the gunk out and she would still have a hard time breathing. Thanks to technology, she is doing wonderfully! I am a proud and happy mom.
