Nola wanted her Daddy! Daddy was happy to take her. :)

I am glad to say Nola is recovering great from this surgery! We had prepared ourselves to face a yucky time with recovering from anesthesia. However, this time she ate and drank the next day and was playing. We are so grateful that she is not having a hard time!! Her little eye is red and swollen, but other than that she is playing and in great spirits!
We will be taking it easy the next few days to make sure and give her eye time to start the healing process. Dr. Hoehn was pleased at the movement in her eye already at our post-op appointment on Friday. We go back to see her next Friday.
Thank you to those of you who have checked on Nola via text, e-mail, or calls. We appreciate it and know we are surrounded by people who care about our little miracle!

So glad that her surgery went ok! Looks a little like Hudson did after his. The recovery was a lot better than I thought it would be. Hope you get good news at your follow-up.

Thanks Brittany! We are glad this recovery is going smoothly. HEr little eye is still alittle swollen but the red is going away.
We had her post-op appointment and she was pleased at the motion the eye already had.
We go back on Friday.
