Surgery done

Surgery is over and all is fine. We are back in the familiar settings of 6-Long at UCSF. We even saw several familiar nurses who asked why we are here. We are settling in for what we hope is a single night.

1,2,3, hope! glad this is over. Wish you a lot of rest soon. XXXXXX without germs the positive aspect of digital communication. When Loki is a grown up we will say: remember in those days, when you couldn't get the Flu over the internet yet!

Love, knuffels, again and again.

Hey Ho Loki! I cross all my fingers for fast recovery. Hold on mom and dad, like you do for over a year now.
Mom, how were the pixies? Thats back in time!!
I try to catch the most energy I can before I come over. You can sleep a little more than when I do Loki sitting. By the way, I'm a hero in crash courses:-)

Met goede gedachten zijn we bij jullie!

En nu dan echt de stap vooruit waarop jullie al ruim een maand hopen?

So glad this is over. Speedy recovery for my little trooper.

Hugs and kisses.

P.S. Don't you 'love' it when nurses recognize you?

Wat moet jullie kleine man toch weer een hoop doorstaan en jullie ook. Ik hoop dat hij snel weer mee naar huis mag.

About Loki Sky

Loki Sky is a special little man. He was a very early micropreemie, weighing only 610 grams (1 lb, 5 oz) after 24 weeks, 3 days gestation, born to an American Father and a Dutch Mother in Berkeley, California on October 18, 2008.

On January 11, 2009, while still in the hospital NICU, his one kidney stopped working. It was repaired after three surgeries. After spending time in three hospitals in three cities, Loki came home on February 17. He struggled with eating, and then stopped in July, leading to 8 days in the hospital, a failure-to-thrive diagnosis, and a NG feeding tube. On October 10, a minor surgery installed a G feeding tube. Another procedure replaced it with a new one, and then again with a Mic-Key button in Jan. 2010.

In August 2010, he and his parents moved to the Netherlands.
