Day 8 Post Op/Post Withdraw

Yesterday we both woke feeling completely helpless. Frustrated and tired we were at our wits end with Mylah's sleepless nights, agitation, and aversion to eating!

After figuring out that Mylah was withdrawing, we were able to breathe a sigh of relief.



Finally with the methadone in her system, Mylah had such a good night! She ate twice and never fussed. It was so nice to get pretty good sleep and to know that she was eating!

We are so thankful to our nurse and dear friend, Laura, for realizing her symptoms and getting her the medicine necessary to calm her and work towards discharge.

We are hoping today is the day, but will have to wait until her doctor and Cardiologist give the green light!

Thank you all again for your continued prayers, comments, and concern. We are so thankful for each of you and your love for our sweet girl and our family!

- Neil and Lara
