7.15.16 Recovery Update

Here it is.
All that fuss over some metal and screws.
Thankfully having it taken out was MUCH MUCH MUCH easier than having it placed.

Aimee's surgery day on Wednesday went really well. Her standard 3x as long to wake up from anesthesia and some apneas in recovery had our final nurse hesitant to let us drive her home. We felt confident seeing how well Aimee looked and knowing that our home monitors and machines would be very sufficient to care for her.

At home we have already been able to reduce her oxi dose down by half. She is quite alert and energetic even. The enima routine is definitely not going well. Her heart rate has gone up significantly today. We will remove the outer bandages tomorrow from both hips and see how the incisions look.

And maybe in a few more days we will get this girl back out in the sunshine where she can help me garden.
