The Cleveland Clinic Difference

Our day has come....
Most of you have been there all along this journey God has had us travel... low roads, hard roads and often the less traveled.. All leading where we are today!
My Girl has been thru it over these last 6 years and Cleveland clinic accomplishes all she has gone thru and more in 2weeks! Today they are going to help Em breathe and establish an effective Airway for her!

     Our arrival time 5:30 am whoowee they are off to an early start! They have coordinated multiple doctors schedules and blocked off 6-7 hr for her procedures!  After starting off my morning in Prayer and Gods word wake Em to go. Em dressed in her pink cocoa PJ's in good spirits but tired!
Limo wonder Will carries Em in to The P building for her scheduled surgery time we checked in and Waited  slept, waited slept,waited...  em snuggled up with her blanket, and animals....

 Around 9:45 we get called back to the prep room...   Wow the way they are set up here makes all the difference even with a wait! They give you a pager to be contacted, texted and reached with updates. They have a monitor like at the airport that shares status on patients process and location!

        All the different Teams of doctors and ChildLife all come to visit& review q's , & pics with Her!
She was loving her post-op Gift Penbo the penguin and showing everyone, of course!( Ashley & Zack)
The teams of dr.s all re-joined for the pre-game huddle to validate the status and Gameplan! really neat that they go the extra yard... for assurance...

      Em all giggles, no fear Her Spirit is so incredible!Jc equips Her with bravery ,courage, peace!
We prayed together.

     Then they provided me with gown and cap to go along with her into the OR room until she falls asleep!
Away we Go together Em, Pola, Tomcat,MOM  and God hand and hand!

      She chose dreamcicle for her mask took 3 breaths as I showered her with  kisses and whispered softly to her How much Her dad and I love her and God is with her!   As she fell off to sleep she had a grip of my hand that they had to pull apart, and the tears fell softly down my cheeks being separated from her but gods comfort embraced me and His peace filled my heart! 
Hand and hand Heart to Heart we are united in God and shall never part!

1115 leave for Surgery  1200 diagnostic procedures complete has secure airway now
1230 Eyes complete get update em doing great           Dr Anne' starting nasal airway
2:15 update pager : left side complete

        Many purposeful encounters God in Action at work while I wait!
Bible out and a gentleman asks what I am reading who works there we started discussing Faith 1peter pauls letters  and How God led Him and He folllowedworks hes done really neat experience  for me to be able to focus on God it was an angelic exp.!  Then what was I thought was a kind random act was soo much more! A lady overhearing my convo. brings my tylenol and bottle of water for my headache! Only wasn't really
 about that as much as it was to be available as a vessel for  God to her and her family!  I was blessed and honored to pray with them and Hear their testimony!

After that it was around 4 and Ent Dr. Anne' meets me in hallway to visit with me!
SURGERY COMPLETE! Time has come 6 years later!
A chance to breathe without struggle!
All went well She opened up her sinuses did resection moved her inferior turbinates(nasal tissue), removed ethmoids. Findings cysts and right side completely walled off no opening at all like a sheet over Her nasal opening. She is now all different and open per Dr Anne and recovering in pacu!       many of tears and hugs to share!
 Emmalee has had a rough time waking from surgery with much discomfort tears of  increased eye/ nasal pain. Taking multiple doses of meds to comfort her. Once pain controlled we were escorted over to the pedi floor. Thank you Kelly R.N for taking such great care of her!
 Thank you Doctors, Nurses,friends and Family for all your support and prayers for Emmalee's Healing!
