The good news is that Leah is doing very well today. She we moved out of intensive care and on to a general surgical floor. While we miss the fabulous nurses on the seventh floor, we like the progress the move signifies. Her heart monitor was removed, which is another good sign, and they are now just taking her vitals every four hours. Best of all, her swelling is down, and her left eye is especially looking great.
More good news: David convinced me to leave the hospital last night and sleep at Dara's house while he stayed here in an armchair with Leah. As a result I got almost eight hours of solid sleep, so an feeling like a completely new person. This is all much easier to face when one has a fabulous husband!
Today we are hoping to talk in depth with Dr. Taylor about how we are going to manage care of Leah's distractor and how we can help her to manage it.
Glad you got some rest! It makes a world of difference. She is beautiful and is looking great! Hang in there. Thinking of you! Caryn
