Bettyjo Update

The past couple of days have been rough. She has been very sick to her stomach, needed a lot pain medication, and has slept most of the time. But, today......she seems to be getting some strength back, has stayed awake longer, has not needed as much pain medication, and has taken a couple of walks around the hospital floor.

It remains to been seen if the surgery was a success. The ENT has not been.........well enthusiastic about her healing. There is still fluid draining from the wound, and it is still cloudy meaning that most likely there is still some infection. She will remain in the hospital over the weekend, and our ENT is on call, so he will be checking on her. He has not given any indication as to when she might be discharged.
