We're keeping track of that anesthesiologist's name, because that was the beat experience Aimee has ever had with anesthesia. He did research ahead of time and talked with a brain disorders specialist. Basically they feel that Aimee may be more resistant to anesthetic, so they put a monitor on her head during the procedure to ensure that she was getting enough. How brilliant (and a bit terrifying to think that this was not done in the past...).
Aimee is now settled in her room. She has had no pain medication and she is calmly alert. Really incredible. The incision spots look great. The surgeon had a bit of trouble seeing, but he persisted and did not have to open her up as a consequence. We will let Aimee rest tonight and hopefully her gut will be awake enough to take her medications this evening. Hoping to start feeding her again tomorrow. Her oxygen and breathing are still a bit off, but she is doing so well. What an amazing girl Aimee is!
