Another successful surgery! (Actually done yesterday July 10)
This surgery they used cadaver skin, to completely redo both Tamlen and Dane's entire backs. The Dr.'s said it was important to get all the dead skin and tissue off, and the cad...aver skin will act as a 'band aid' and allow their bodies to heal better, faster, and they will be in less pain. Their whole backs were both 3rd degree burns ('full thickness'). These sweet, TOUGH babies have had a combined 22hours of surgery in the last 36 hours.(12 for Tams, and 10 for Dane), and still continue to make small improvements each day!! Their next surgery will be for their faces, it is tentatively scheduled for the 22 of July.
Again THANK YOU for your continued support, love and prayers. We are truly blessed!
