Minor surgery tomorrow

Monday morning Sophie will have surgery to put a "button" into her
stomach for a feeding tube. I know, it may sound kinda gross, but
luckily she won't know the difference. This will make it easier for
us to give her non-bottle feedings.

This is a very simple procedure, especially compared to what she's
already been through, but it will still mean general anaesthesia and a
ventilator (for infants, in adults this would be done as an out-
patient procedure). She should come off the vent right after with a
small chance that she'll be on it overnight.

She's scheduled for 9:30, so we'll see how that goes. We're excited
because it's one step closer to home!
