Twins are out of surgery!

[katfco]

The twins' separation surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning, and it will take anywhere from 8-20 hours. I'm sure the family could use whatever thoughts and prayers you can send their way.

UPDATE: As of 20 minutes ago, the twins were reported still in surgery, but they are now on separate tables. So they survived the separation, and now the doctors need to try to make sure they both can have a working stomach and intestines.

***********

Most recent update from their FB page: Another positive update:
Emmett is done with the internal stuff and the plastic surgeons have started on the outside. Owen has a little more work before plastic surgeons start. Rough estimate from the Docs is that the boys could be out of the OR in approximately 1.5 hrs.

The twins are both out of surgery and recovering in the NICU! Of course, they still need thoughts and prayers as they recover from surgery, but things are looking very good.

Wonderful news! I hope the worst is behind them. I think about the possibility of themother and father getting to hold each baby individually and ahh so emotional.
