Day 2 post-surgery dawns early

Things can frequently be harder when it's dark outside.  The surgery anesthesia has fully dissipated, leaving Mary Anne pretty uncomfortable overnight.  Hospitals are lousy places for rest anyway, and the return of some leg spasms didn't make it any easier.


She's sleeping comfortably now.   She's off of all IVs and other hospital-only assists, so we remain hopeful for discharge orders soon.  If not today, tomorrow.

Every new person that comes into the room comments that the flowers are beautiful and it smells great in here.  We've also been informed that there will be chocolates back at the apartment.  There is comfort in the small things.


I have to throw in a plug for Your Best Friend's Friend.  The folks watching Scout and Sparky have been great with our last minute dog sitting needs.  If you're in Denver and need dog help, call them.


I'll post again when I know when we get to go "home"
