Hi to all! It is Monday morning at 7:45 am. Kasi is doing well this morning! She had the best night sleep so far. That was nice for both of us. She did get put back on oxygen last night because her numbers dropped a bit, but with a little help she slept like a baby. Dr. Russo has been in already this morning and likes the progress she has made so far. He did say that her drain needs to stay in one more day at least because she is still draining too much to take it out.
As for Kasi's comfort. She doesn't really have the pain from her actual surgery as much as from her brace. The edge at the top of her brace come across her incision and that is painful. They will be calling Mary Free Bed to see if they can fix that today. But she has to keep it on at all times. This brace she can even shower in. It is a little harder to get into too. We will get better at it each day I am sure.
Last night I helped Kasi stand up for a bit and she looked at me and said, "I am taller". Yes she is! This is the first thing we will do once she can walk, measure her. :-)
I think that is all for now! God is healing her up and she is doing really well! She is on the floor now so she can talk on the phone and such. She also has been on the computer as a lot of you know already!
Thank you for your faithfulness in praying. She is a testimony to God's amazing power and what He does when His people pray.

Tell Kasi that there will be NO question that she is taller than me now! And she's twelve, that is ridiculous! :) Still praying!!!

Jodi and Kasi-
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear things are going great for you! Sounds like you are enjoying the new freedom of being able to get up and around a little. We will continue to pray for healing. Can you order whatever food you want? If so, I recommend the Chocolate Torte. I think I had one each day I was on bedrest. Dillan and Haley will be in the NICU for 3-4 weeks, we should do lunch or supper sometime. Have a wonderful day!
Marcie :)
