Wonderful women of the blogosphere, thanks for your kind and supportive messages. This is Georgie just this morning, in the big bed with her brother and sister. She is recovering really well, despite the fact that in this picture she looks a little like a London gangster I once knew called Billy Braincell.
She is behaving as well as we could hope. No vomiting, excessive dopiness or scary business. We are treating her at home with lots and lots of kisses.
She just smiles and squeaks and demands more milk to build up those chubby thighs. I can't quite catch her lopsided grin on film, but trust me, it could melt ice caps. My heightened adrenaline has subsided a little, and my heart doesn't jump into my mouth every time I look at her and remember what happened.
Now we just wait to have our follow-up appointments with the neurosurgeon and the Brain Injury Unit, which start in a few weeks. Other than that, life goes on as normal, apart from some extra-vigilant protection of Georgie's poor sweet little head. There is no predicting the future, of course, but babies are resilient, she seems to be doing wonderfully and we feel very optimistic.
Thanks again for your kind words.
George is just adorable (and Ivy and Teddy too), and I am so pleased that she is looking like it will all end well. x
ReplyDeleteThe kissing cure, it's the best there is. So glad to hear everything seems to be on the mend. Bx
ReplyDeleteI am so very pleased to hear she is on the mend
ReplyDeleteHoly crapola woman, you poor love. Nothing, but nothing, is scarier than something awful happening to our defenceless, vulnerable, little people. Heart and hugs go out to you and Keith and the tiny Mogantoshes

She's gorgeous. Little gangsta.
ReplyDeleteYour children are adorable! Im so pleased to here that George is doing ok. I hope & pray all the tests come back with good results Xx
ReplyDeleteMilk and kisses...no better cure.
ReplyDeleteThe big scary-soundingness of 'The Brain Injury Unit' contrasts greatly with the soft chubby gorgeousness of those photos.
ReplyDeleteI hope and suspect that your optimism is justified. The Stockenses all send you good wishes. And some dinosaurs and mermaids.
