Liberty's Surgery

Liberty had eye surgery on Tuesday. She had a problem with Strabismus(eye deviation). The doctor thought it would be better now than later. She was pretty good in the hospital. She had a lot more swelling than we were prepared for, but she is doing so much better today.

Liberty and her dogs. The one next to her is her best dog Chocolate Sunday a gift from her Grandma.







Liberty before surgery and her new dog they gave her in the hostital his name is Deke.

Liberty after surgery she has have ointment in her eyes twice a day she hates it but she lets us put it in.

She had to wait a long time go back to surgery so the nurses let her drive a toy car around. The Glasses were a gift from the nurses.

Libby, you are a little doll. Grandma loves you so much and I love to see your beautiful smile. I like your new dog, Deke. How did the nurses know that you love dogs so much? I am praying that your eyes will soon be ALL BETTER!
Love Grandma Ward

Liberty, it looks like you had a lot of fun waiting for the Dr's, its a good to be brave and get the stuff in your eyes. Keep getting better.

I was showing this to Laura and I decided that Dave looks worse then Liberty in the after Pics. Maybe a comb before pics Dave.....

You were so brave, Libby. I love all the smiling pictures.

Mike, your comment made me laugh. I agree...Libby did look better than her father in the after pics. That just proves that surgeries are harder on the parents...

Libby,
The other WA wards are hoping you have a quick recovery. Emma went through surgury for the same condition and it has made a huge difference. I'm glad you are recovering and I hope you will be up and around soon!

Stacey is right. Surgury is tough on the parents as well as the kids.

David, you may look a little rough after Libby's surgery, but I love the picture of you and Liberty in her bedroom. I would like that one framed. So glad you are doing better, Libby. You are very loved and all of your family has been praying for you!
