The Big Day!/Llego el Dia

Right before the surgery 6:30am

We made by 6:30am, Anise was very emotional and all she wanted was fishy crackers, and of course she couldn't eat anything after midnight. For any of you that know my Anise...she is a snacker, she is always has snack in hand, and she wakes up asking for a granola bar or fishy crackers, so she was not a happy camper.  We talked up the fact that she would be getting a present after the doctors took care of her lip and her ear.

Anesthesiologist came in and explained what his role is during the surgery. He was very nice, and very attentive giving me a reassurance that he will watch over Anise.

Nurse came right after and gave Anise a "happy juice," this will make her groggy, and will help the Anesthesiologist put in the IV without her knowing it! Yay.  Within 15 minutes of her taking the juice, she was out of it, and within 5 minutes of that they took her from my arms and off she went.
