We are home from the hospital and so very happy!!!

Yay we are home at last and hoping to stay here!

Lilly was readmitted Tuesday afternoon because of high fever
we finally got released last night at 7:30 pm.
The neursurgeon came back in last night and I begged them to release us!
He said Lilly has normal post op fluid on the back of her head but that her
mastoid cavity is full of fluid and buldging. That is the sinus cavity behind your ear. They did say she needed tubes because the fluid is not draining right.
Lilly had so many ear infections her first two years. Then we have only had one and now this cavity that is full. So I think we might let the medicine work and sit on another surgery for a while. She has been through so much the past 6 weeks that she needs a break!

She is on antibiotics, tylenol and motrin, we are hoping soon her little personality will be back to normal

Her sissy Emma is really sick today she stayed home from school. Emma has been through alot with all of this too. Not understanding what is going on, and why mommmy and daddy and her sissy are in and out of the hospital

I am giving them both lots of snuggles and love today.


We are staying in the house another 2 weeks to keep Lilly well. Then hope to return to our normal routine. Lillys routine being still restricted a bit but soon the Straub house will be back to normal

Thanks for all your prayers and everything you all have done for our family.
