Day 2

MK had what would be an expected evening. She made sure the clocks were all working perfectly. She knew exactly when she was due her next pain medication and made sure she got it on time.

Holly was able to get a couple of hours of sleep. I have not been as lucky, either doctors came in or I just could not fall asleep.

This morning doctors, interns, nurses, and more doctors. They just keep coming. They removed the bandage from the incision and it all looks good. She is moving better. Holly just put her hair in side pony tails, that seems to help.

Later today they will move her out of ICU into a normal room. They plan on her getting up and moving a little bit. Once she can get up she will have the cath removed. She never felt comfortable with the bed pan so the cath was the best bet.

Other than that everyone is doing well. I will add to this post later today

It took me a while but here is the final update for day 2. It is now 1 am on day 3.

MK is still in ICU, at first is was because they did not have a room for her, which turns out to be a good thing. After a good 3 hours of sleep she woke up in a lot of pain and a fever. The took some blood and urine and are running tests. It is amazing after having such a good afternoon, that they pain came back so strong. The good news is they have it under control now. Oh I forgot to mention some of the pain medication she was taking caused her to itch all over. So we have added another item that MK is allergic to. Right now she is awake and talking to Holly. On my next post I hope to have the results of the tests they ran on her blood and urine. Please excuse any typos or other errors, writing is not one of my strengths and when I am tired I am sure I will make many mistakes. Ryan did stop by tonight. I am sorry he saw her not at her best. Next update soon.
