On Thursday 9th April 2015 at approximately 11am, 1385 days after Jovie had, what was effectively a life saving operation to 'fit' a tracheostomy;
IT
IS
OUT!
Jovie did the honours herself and has been showing off her new un-taped up neck complete with jazzy plaster to anyone who will look all day! Loads of family around today to make her feel extra special and we can't even get our heads around how happy/scared/excited we are right now.
Not 100,000,000% cracked the mask just yet - she's still a bit spooked by it when it pops off or comes loose - but near as dammit. This little girl never ceases to amaze/impress us. Can only imagine what it feels like for her, but it's already a pleasure carrying around less medical equipment (I'm a daddy not a doctor!) and watching her eat and play without worrying sick about that tube.
Lots of work still to do including a full sleep study tonight, chance of getting home tomorrow which would be ace. a real landmark day for my little Wolfpac ✌️
I am so happy for you Jovie, for your Mum & Dad, for Simon & Carolyn, for all the family and followers, moments like this need to be shared and I am pleased to be part of it. Love and admiration to you.
