Just got in from visiting my sister Carol. She had a bit of a rough day to-day, but not unexpected, since she got her epidural out, her catheter and IV out. All she has remaining is her posterior chest tube, and her saline lock. She is now on oral pain meds. Carol was up many times to-day to the bathroom, mainly. She did not eat much, because after her dressing change she started to feel some pain. She will have a better day to-morrow, and did perk up a lot when her pain meds kicked in. She is moving very well. Carol could not have a hot shower because there was no hot water on her floor, to-day. She was allowed to have one, and was a bit disappointed about this, so I boiled the tea kettle a few times and got her a big basin of hot water to at least be able to sponge bath. I wish I had some grand marnier to feed her! She will feel much better once her big honking chest tube is out, I am sure xoxxooxxoxoxoo Will go see her to-morrow, and keep you updated. Garry is visiting her now.
