Avery had her surgery today and it went well. The surgery took about an hour and a half. When I went and saw her she woke up for a bit, but was still a little groggy. Before they put the trach in place they did a bronchoscopy and found that there was some bronchomalacia. This wasn't great news but it confirmed that we made the right decision about the decompression surgery. With bronchomalacia, Avery would've needed a trach with or without the decompression. The decompression surgery would have only helped the central apnea. So overall it was a great day.
