On day ten we discovered that she had an inguinal hernia, and on day 12 we found ourselves at Stanford's Children Hospital getting surgery. Talk about being scared. Even though it was considered an minor surgery, there isn't really a minor surgery when its your 12-day-old-child.
I am so thankful for the amazing people at Stanford. We met everyone of the surgical team and the anesthesiologist's team (12 in all). They shook our hands and looked us in our eyes and said. "We are going to take good care of Isa." They helped us to feel like we were important to them and that we mattered to them. That helped take the edge off knowing that Isa was in caring competent hands. Needless to say all went well.
Seeing Isa like this brought tears to Silvia |
Now she is five weeks old and we can't stop staring at her.
She is hypnotizing with her smiles and here little dimple.
She looks like a little doll in this picture.

Olá Justin / Silvia.
A Isa Maria é simplesmente linda. Parabéns para vocês. Amei o nome que vocês escolheram mais ainda depois que eu li os varios significados. Beijos com carinho Cecilia (Damaris's Mother)
