First day post-op

Uncategorized 1 Minute

And all is going well according to her nurse, Iris (too bad it’s not Daisy but at least it’s a flower.) Conk is awake and responsive; still a little groggy, but asking about Chickpea and hoping she can have some apple juice soon. The breathing tube was removed around noon and all her vitals are good. Hopefully she’ll be able to leave the ICU tomorrow.

  2. So glad she’s awake and talking. She’ll probably not remember much of today due to anesthesia, mega medications and stimuli and body fatigue.
    So thrilled everything is going well ❤️❤️🎉🎉

  13. I’m relieved to hear this news. I can’t imagine the pain and med load from this, but hey, she’s got new valves and is on her way to a much better quality of life! You won’t be able to slow her down, now!

  17. Great news. After not thinking about you for years unless Cindy mentioned you, I’ve thought about you lots lately,including yesterday – sent some prayers and positive vibes. So happy to hear you are breathing on your own and on the road to recovery. Hugs
