The Lord has been with us today, thanks to so many prayers. I’m just overwhelmed with gratitude for all that everyone has done for us.

Last night there were issues through the night with low blood pressure, but they finally got those resolved after several hours. She managed to get a few hours sleep, which is most since we’ve been here.

Another very hectic day, with more progress. The large drain in her chest, her epidural and her jugular IV were removed today. With less metal and plastic poking her, her comfort has increased. She has walked 8 laps and will go out on the “track” one more time before bed. There’s still several more IV’s and one smaller drain in her chest cavity, but we are definitely over the hump.

They just  told us they will give her the first “meal” through the feeding tube sometime tonight. She hasn’t eaten since supper Wed. so she’s REALLY looking forward to that.

We both feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends and good medical care. I will try to update again tomorrow if I can find some time. God Bless you all!!!!
