Surgery tomorrow (2/4/08)

We are on for surgery tomorrow! As apprehensive as we all are about it, we know that it is the best thing for Mom. Once she gets it done, we know she can really start recovering. They are planning to put her on a special rotating bed post-op. The bed will rotate her from side to side, that way she won't have to be manually turned so much. We're hoping that will make a big difference.

As for her day today, everything seemed to go O.K. She did have one episode of vomiting, which was a little unexpected, but other than that nothing major. Temperature was 101.1, but the doctor didn't seem too concerned as far as proceeding with her surgery. Pain is still an issue, but they were able to up her dosage on her pain medication, so I think that is helping her. Everyone just have her in your thoughts tomorrow.

With much gratitude,
Holly

I just wanted to say that Mrs. Vicki is in our prayers. I am Aiden's sister(She babysat him). I have only spoken to Mrs. Vicki a few times but she was a pleasure to talk to and she has taken great care of my baby brother. I only hope for the best for her! She will remain in our Family's prayers!

Get well soon Mrs. Vicki! :)
