Mom is in Surgical Intensive Care and doing good. Her pain was out of control initially but it was not from surgery just her Chronic pain in her back. Her nurses name is Chris and he is doing everything at her "beckon call" to make sure she is comfortable and he is wonderful!
She is thinking and speaking clear and now has the Morphine pain pump that she can control. The pain specialist has come in and helped with getting her pain under control better.
The Intensive Care Specialist and the Nurse Practitioner for the SICU have come in and met Mom and she is remembering their names and when they came in and had her push on their hands the strength in her left leg/foot seemed to be stronger, which is a great sign.
She is very jovial in conversation and getting more comfortable as the pain medicine continues to kick in.
THANK YOU everyone for your thoughts and prayers, keep them coming. She is in good spirits and we can feel the love and prayers.
Love,
Rebekah
Brenda, some day your kids will tease you about being "jovial in conversation and getting more comfortable as the pain medicine continues to kick in." Just enjoy a few days of pain free and being waited on…so happy for you getting through this like you have!!
