Where is Frank when you need him!!

It's Tuesday morning and WWOM had a good night! When me and MG arrived she had already walked this morning. Her goal is to get 4 walks in today!

MG and I spoke briefly with the anesthesiologist's nurse this morning. They are going to try and wean her off some of the pain medication. During surgery they put in an epidural which has been amazing. This helps keep her abdomen numb since she has an open wound, but also they are giving her IV pain meds. The side effect of these is that they slow down the bowels..and since her's aren't working anyway we need to try and avoid these as much as possible. She can keep the epidural for awhile so we are grateful for that.

Since we took Frank home WWOM has been without her beloved "Franklin" planner. She asked the nurse for a pen last night and made some notes on the bottom of her tissue box to ask the Doctor this morning. One of her concerns was if she had sepsis, according to the Dr. she probably has a lower grade form of sepsis but they are watching that closely.

Hopefully today will be another day of continous progress for WWOM!
