ICU - Day of Surgery

MK was moved to ICU around 12:30. The ICU at Emory is very new. There is a little room off each ICU room where we can stay and the chairs make into beds. Sort of. MK has been getting some drugs every two hours and a Valium about every four hours. Pain management is the main thing right now. Currently she does not like moving her head much because of the pain. The evening nurses checked in around 7:30 tonight. Our nurse seems very sharp. Mk liked her.

Dr. Barrow stopped by earlier and said everything went as planned today. He said she would most likely move out of ICU sometime tomorrow. Not sure if I like that since MK is getting such great care here. The plan is for her also to get up tomorrow.

Hopefully the pain will be much less tomorrow. Not sure if Holly and I will get a lot of sleep tonight. Holly is giving it a try now, since we have been up since 3:30 AM.

Next post - tomorrow.
