Well we are off, on the road to recovery. She is trying hard to be good, and really likes that nice green pain button. Everything is looking good, as the Drs. see it. The surgeon say everything else looked healthy when she looked around. Alison has been able to sit up and walk a short way. She sat in a chair for twice as long as they required and has taken two very short walks. Her BP is a bit low, even for her, so she hasn’t been pushed much. The only excitement has been the O2 sensor that makes quite a racket if her breathing gets too shallow. I put the laptop on her bed and she read all of the comments.
