Eye Surgery

Doctor Hoffman who is the optomologist examined Aliya under anesthesia last night and decided not to do surgery at this time. She has a lot of pressure in her left eye and he will check her in two weeks because her eyes are too small as of right now. She is having problems with her kidneys which is another thing the doctors will have to watch. One of her lungs partially collapsed on the November 1st but it is doing better now. It didn't even affect her, she was still breathing fine. They saw the collapsed lung in an x-ray. Aliya is on the intubator but will be taken off of it this morning if she is doing well. This is a standard procedure when put under anesthesia. She gained 30 grams and has been stable. Yay to gaining weight! Hopefully she will continue to start gaining from here and out but time will tell. Taya and Kiya were able to see her again. They just love their little sister and can't wait to bring her home.
With her syndrome there is a specialist at the University of Utah for the Wolf Hirsshorn Syndrome. They will be meeting up with him in a few weeks. They have heard wonderful things about him and are grateful to have him looking after Aliya.
