Continued Blessings!!

I just realized that I am falling completely down on this blogging thing. I was suppose to update everyone as soon as Keely's surgery was done 2 weeks ago. I guess better than never! Anyways, Keely's surgery went fine, despite the obstacles that we had to go through to get her to the surgery day. Lets just say we went down on Monday and didn't get home until Thursday. She had her tear ducts unclogged, her Broviac removed, and she had a broch. They ended up keeping her overnight in the PICU so that they could watch her due to her past history and removed the Broviac the morning after surgery because they couldn't get another IV access while she was asleep after attempting numerous times in surgery. But, all is well now and she is loving the broviac being gone and so is mama. For one, she has the luxery now of enjoying a nice tub bath instead of a sponge bath. Who wouldn't??? Keely had a follow-up with Dr. Bonnett yesterday for the thrush and to get her H1N1 vaccination. I was also a little worried that she may be coming down with something due to a cough and increased amount of secretions. So, I suggested before the H1N1 was given that they swab her for RSV just to rule out. Thankfully, that came back negative and the thrush is gone. They also took some cultures of Keely's stool because she has had diarrhea of and on for about 2 weeks now. So, with her history of C-Diff, they want to rule it out and also checking for a bacteria infection in the intestional tract. If they come back positive, she will have to start some antibiotics. For now, that is about all that is going on with Keely. Brandon, on the otherhand, is still doing remarkable. He is currently on the maintenace rounds of chemo which will last for another year or so. He has lost his hair for the 2nd time since he started back in March. No worries for him though, because he likes to shave his head anyways. As we approach Thanksgiving, we remind ourselves everyday that we have so much to be thankful for in our lives. God has truly blessed our family the past year and a half and he continues to bless us each and everyday. OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving to ALL!!!!
