Sophia's recovery

Knuckles... yum!
Just before surgery. The arrows are to mark which eye:)!

Sophia did really well. She came out of her "sleep" really well and want to eat right away. This was a very good sign. Her hemangioma had 5-6 injections with solutions as well so it was quite swollen post-op. This morning the swelling from the surgery has gone down, but it is bruised at one of the injection sites. We are able to give her some Tylenol. She is sleeping well! We will know on the 15th what the Dr would like to do. If the steroids worked we can leave it alone and will continue to shrink. If the steroids did not work, then 3 weeks from the 15th we will have the tumor extracted. This will mean an incision, and more anesthesia. We are praying the steroids work. I will keep you posted. Thank you all for your prayers!
