Elizabeth and I went to see Mr Jaffray this afternoon. I won't bore you with the details, but the upshot is that if Elizabeth stays out of hospital until January 8th her op will be cancelled/postponed, but if she has any admissions then it will go ahead in mid-January/Feb.
Mr J thinks that it's 50/50 that Elizabeth's problems are caused by reflux, but he has seen children with as few clinical signs as Elizabeth 'cured' by a fundoplication. I think that, ultimately, he feels that the potential for long-term chronic lung damage is too serious to ignore. We trust Mr Jaffray completely, so that's how things will stand.

Here's hoping for tip-top health for the next 8 weeks then (and way beyond of course)...though having a specific date must be horribly tense. Well my darlings, just try and relax and enjoy the run-up to Christmas etc. Much love, Liz and the Norfolk Dumplings xxx
Haven't been able to access the blog for a while so was delighted with the news. Both Anna and Ella are gorgeous little girls. Anna looks really cheeky and Ella is really growing up, I can't believe it.
