It was decided not to give Maisie a general anesthetic but instead give her a spinal anesthesia instead. This would just take the feeling away below the waist.
Even though Maisie had the anesthetic it did not stop her being a little annoyed and she pulled out her cannula that was in her leg. This meant that the operation took a little longer and she also needed a little bit of general anesthetic to help while they put a new cannula in.
Maisie was most likely annoyed because she was hungry. As you can see not being fed makes Maisie a little bloshie;
Maisie was not happy she couldn't have any milk! |
A big Thank you to the surgeons, anesthetists and the rest of the fantastic team at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh for helping Maisie and making us feel so welcome.
They all reiterated what we already know about My Amazing Maisie - she is very strong and a wee fighter
