Still in ICU.
Little bit of a rough morning. Apparently Kathy's GI system is not ready for solid food, she's sipping water and juice though. Just a matter of time. Can't blame her after six plus hours of anesthesia.
We've met with both surgeons and they have assured us everything so far is expected.
She's still in quite a bit of pain and discomfort but overall not as bad as last time. Mostly sleeping but definitely communicating better and more aware of what's going on. Good sign.
Even though we've researched and studied it's weird what is affected by such an invasive procedure, head, jaw, neck, eyes and all the usual systems. Progress is measured in increments of each part.
Thanks everyone for all your good wishes.
