Going home

Once Ellie had the tube out Ellie was ready to get dressed and get out of there. So were we actually. So once she got all dressed she posed for a picture with me since I'm not usually in them. We got home and were quiet and mellow for the rest of the evening. Ellie watched another movie. She slept good that night and got up ready to go to school. Ryan didn't have to work Monday so he went with her and stayed all day. She is not allowed to do P.E. for the rest of the year but she had a good day. Her incision site and stitches look really great after we cleaned them. The goal is to keep them free of scabs and dried blood. So that is how we have been keeping them. Today we got an appointment to take her back this Friday to take the stitches out. This makes us nervous because Ellie is touchy when anyone gets close to them so we hope she is calm enough to sit still enough for the doctor to use a microscope to cut the stitches out of the inside of her ear. The others should be much easier to get to. Pray for her to be calm and not nervous about getting the stitches out. We will be doing that at 1pm on Friday this week.
