I just heard from Jillian's mom. Her surgery was a success at just under 3 hours and she is home and recovering.

Children are so resilient. With Rhyan's first implant, she was up every 2-3 hours requiring pain meds the night following the procedure, and by the next evening no one would have guessed she had just had major surgery (major to me anyway!!).

I'll keep you posted on Jillian's progress as I'm updated by her mommy. As it stands, in four weeks baby Jillian will hear her mommy's voice for the first time ever. And their world will be forever changed.
