Riley had a busy morning. Everything from playing with mud soap to having her blood drawn. She even got to play in the playroom and attend for a short bit, pet therapy. She loved ZOE - the dog.
They took her back to pre op at 11am, talked to everyone and their brother, got her dressed up in her pretty little gown, which she cared less for, and then it was time to go into the OR. She had been a pretty brave little girl up until it was time to get dressed in her gown and off to the OR. I got dressed up in my scrubs and carried her into the OR. At that point she was bawling.
They got the "happy gas" mask on and within seconds she was asleep.
Dr. Frim called us at 1:30p to let us know she was asleep and that they got all the IV's in smoothly. He also mentioned it would take 3 - 3.5 hours.
We should be getting another possible update around 3 - 3:30.
Thanks for everyone thoughts and prayers.

Cindy and Matt-I said a special prayer today for all of you especially Riley. She is a little trooper and I am sure she will have quite a few stories to tell. Hang in there and I am thinking of all of you. Shelley Schelble
