Deja-vu blues

Fri night Emma had congestion which became wheezing which became stridor. She was obviously in distress and her tummy and chest were sucking in way to much. We brought her to the ER at Schneiders Childrens' Hospital and she's comfortable and stable right now. The ENT wants to take her to the OR and scope her to see what the hemangioma in her airway looks like at this point. If there is no significant growth he won't intervene, we may just up her dose of propranolol. He did say we might have to do laser surgery or even something more invasive than that if it's really huge. I'm so worried that surgery may be our only option this time around but hopeful that, that won't be the case. *fingers crossed*
