I think our entire family slept better last night than we have in - TopicsExpress



          

I think our entire family slept better last night than we have in the last two or three weeks. Carson has done well today recovering from her surgery. The Drs and nurses gave Carson a list of 5 goals and she knocked out all of them but one and that was pushed off by the Drs and Nurses. The biggest event today was her BP dropped enough to get everyones attention and she was running a fever that we are still watching. The fever is most likely just a post op condition that we have seen before and they are managing it with Tylenol. She has complained about the same types of pain as she did on her last two thoracotomies and it is mainly due to the position they lay her in during surgery which creates undue stress on her shoulder. The pain is being managed well with morphine and an epidural. The other big event today was she got a bath and is now sitting in a bedside chair watching a movie. We dont have George (St. Jude ICU nurse) here this time to force her to move her arm around so we are trying to fill those shoes. Moving and doing the exercises with her arm will make this stay shorter which is what we are really hoping for so we can get back on the chemo train. The fight must continue. The doctors told us Carsons lung looked good and the resection of the two tumors went well. They were also very positive about the removal of the tumors behind her heart in the lymph node area. Both Lebonheur and St. Judes pathology labs are reviewing the tumors and hopefully we will get reports back middle of next week. We did also get excited today when we found out Carson was on the November cover of The Roadrunner. Please tell your congregations, Sunday school classes, reach groups, youth groups, co-workers, cousins and everybody else that we are grateful for the prayers being said for us daily and hourly. Go Team Carson!!!
