Well Taylor had her surgery last week.  I had to go without my husband because he had to be out of town for work.  This wouldn’t of been a problem normally but Taylor got sick on her regular scheduled date of surgery so we had to move it.

Taylor had another surgery at the beginning of Feb.  I was having problems with my computer and couldn’t post about it.
The surgery went pretty well.  She did throw up 3 times after this one, which she has never done before.   So we are going to request a different anesthesiologist next time.  He wasn’t very friendly [...]

It’s been almost 6 weeks since Taylor’s last surgery and her voice is still strong.  I almost hate to say anything for fear it will spoil it but I’m so happy.  Usually by 4 weeks we notice a change in her voice.  This time it hasn’t happened yet.   Now that could mean a few things [...]
