This little girl is a rockstar! She is doing amazingly well. In fact, she is feeling so well that it is now us reminding her that she needs to be calm and to not over do it. She is almost completely off of her pain meds and is feeling really good. Our biggest concern now is to keep her from getting bumped. She is doing way better than we ever expected. We are grateful for the many prayers that have contributed to her fast recovery.
Our time in the hospital mixed up her days & nights because the nurses were coming in around the clock. Friday night we tucked her in and when we woke up at 12:30 am for her next dose of meds, she was still awake just doing her thing. She hasn't gone to bed at a normal time once since we've been home. We're hoping to get back on a normal schedule soon.
She got to have a bath of sorts today. We were able to wash her hair, it was a matted mess. It always feels good to have a bath & clean clothes. She can't raise her arms above her head so her wardrobe is limited but she's perfectly ok with wearing jammies every day.
She is a little grossed out by her ear. She doesn't like to look at it but she loves to show it off. It's still a little oozy so I don't blame her. She still has a bandage over the rib incision and she refuses to allow us anywhere near it but she doesn't hold it constantly anymore so that is good.
At this rate, she should be back to school this week sometime. We are blown away at how fast she is coming around. We have been so so blessed!
