Happy Girl


We went this morning for Juline's 1 month post-operative visit.
The doctor was very pleased with how she is doing! Her head went down 1 cm! Her body is loosening up, too. When we got her, she was very rigid, which is typical of babies with hydrocephalus. After surgery, when fluid starts circulating through their spinal column again, they tend to loosen.

It is much easier to get this look out of her now than it was when we got her - she is so happy!

The doctor said she can probably return home after next month's appointment if all continues to go well.

What? You mean I have to give her back? :)
