We are in for a rough night.

The surgery went fine, but the recovery is taking longer than expected. Jalee is in the ICU with all the equipment still inplace and a warming blanket to help raise her interior body temp. She will be sedated through the night to allow them to bring her back to a normal state and do it in a way that is comfortable for her. She needs the rest anyway. Dr. Moon stopped by on his way out to check on her one last time. He reassured us that everything was fine. Sometimes Jalee can be a little difficult to deal with. She is just staying in character.:-)

Wednesday morning will entail the removal of the breathing tube, removing some of the large IV's, and putting smaller lines in for the stepdown room. It will be another day of rest filled with alarms and endless visits from the nurse.

One day at a time.
