She's almost done!

Okay the doctor called us and is done with the work on her foot. The assistant is closing her up and they'll call when she's in recovery and we can see her. He said the surgery went well but was quite difficult. The tissue around the tendons and the tendons themselves were really thick and very tough to get through. They had several people pulling her foot in different directions trying to get it in place. There was minimal blood loss and they made the two hour tourniquet time limit. He said we can expect to go home Sunday or Monday but possibly Saturday, for sure we're not going home tomorrow.
The battery is dying so I have to go but I'll update once we see her in recovery.

Oh Jen....you guys are all amazing. Just reading all this brings tears to my eyes. Praise the Lord for his strength! I have been praying for you all morning. I was up at 5:30am this morning with Merrick and was praying and thinking what Jordan and you guys were going through. So glad to hear things are done and you should be holding her now! Just as your song says..."Blessed be the name of the Lord" Love you guys. Love Tobi
