Sorry about all the posts...but I wanted to share about Isabel real quick. A PRAISE - One of her tear ducts has opened!! This is such a wonderful thing. I think I blogged about this a while back, but her tear ducts have been clogged due to them never opening, since birth. Normally, they open by 6 months. After months of massaging and antibiotic drops, we were supposed to have had the surgery last week!! We had been praying and asked lots of others to pray that her ducts would open on their own. We saw two ophthalmologists, the second of who gave me so much more encouragement - I got different opinions from them both. Long story...but in the end, the surgery still might have to take place if the other tear duct does not open. We do have it scheduled for next month, but I will continue to pray and massage and doctor her little eye in the HOPE that it too might open on it's own. THe one that has not opened is actually the worse of the two, but it is not uncommon for the duct to open even as late as the 11th and 12th month. I am hoping for no surgery, but we'll do what's best for Isabel. I'll keep you posted.
