Hello, sorry it's been so long since my last update, things have been a little crazy. The girls are doing well, Chloe is seeing much better now that she has her glasses. It's like she's seeing a lot of things for the first time. Charlotte's incision is healing well. The scar is very large, and very dark. Her surgeon says that she will have another surgery somewhere in the nearer future. Chandler is currently in the hospital, he has been since February 18th. We're not sure when he will be discharged. He has really bad acid reflux, and the doctor's think that the reflux is triggering his Vagel reflex, causing his lungs and heart to stop working. The Vagal nerve is located in your throat. The vagus nerve plays a role in (amongst other things) controlling the pulse and the blood oxygen levels. When you are gagged or choking, the vagal nerve will slow down your pulse rate, to keep the blood pressure low, thus causing your breathing and oxygen intake to slow or stop. Most of the time, rubbing him on the chest will bring him back, but it's been harder lately to get his body to respond and start up again. I'm sure he will be fine, though, he's proven that he is a fighter. Well, here are some pics of the family. Love to all.
