A few weeks ago I told you about a little Iraqi girl with a severe medical problem, and how some concerned Americans conspired to make sure she got the help she needed. Michael Yon now reports that Rhma has had the surgery she needed, and the results were terrific. He posted this email from one of her nurses:
Rhma did absolutely beautifully during surgery. Her oxygen saturation is now between 87 and 91 and she is pink! She looks like a different child. Her Mom just kept holding her hands, looking at her nail beds and smiling. She has been very stable and has not required any medications to keep her blood pressure up. She is still on the ventilator just to allow her to rest for the night but she'll be off it in the morning. I will keep you posted.
This is very sweet good news on top of the political good news of the Iraqi constitutional referendum...
