Friday #1

What a beautiful day at the spa! Lin is now officially on clear fluids, sipping on apple juice and waiting patiently for that first sip of her fav, ginger ale. So, the nausea and GERD have calmed down significantly. She also had some of her stitches removed this morning, still a bit of leaking from the lower incision so those sutures stayed in. Yesterday's CT/drain insertion showed another small collection of old blood by the liver and another drain was inserted this am to deal with that. We don't want any old blood in there, breeding grounds for infection. BP is stable, no temp, heart rate good, off oxygen. WOW! Looking good!!

Great visit this am with Lucille and Deb!
