From Teresa... Good news ,bad news day. Tami was having pain in her head yesterday after wearing her helmet . We called the company that fit it to her. They sent a guy over to readjust it for her. But by then her head was so sore that she was hurting even with it off. She had booked a massage with the guy that gives them free to the patients for 9:30 pm. By the time for it she was too uncomfortable to enjoy or relax for it. The nurse gave her medicine for pain and to help her sleep. She said she felt hot and nausious. She slep until 12:45am, then woke up uncomfortable again. She got more meds. and fell back to sleep. By 6:30 am she was hurting again and hot and nausious. I asked the nurses to check her temperature and vitals. She wasn't running a fever.( she was actually a little cooler than normal). Her nurse checked with her doctor about adjusting the pain meds. So most of the therapy was done in her room today with the exception of her walking a few steps with help in the paralell bars. She managed to eat half a thing of yogurt and enjoyed every bite.
Yesterday she was taken off the heprin drip, and put on a different blood thiner. Yeah! one less IV line.
This afternoon her head was still hurting, so the doctor ordered a CT scan. There is some swelling which is being monitored. She is snoring now. I think rest is a main ingrediant in her healing process.
Thanks to all that contributed to help with the yard sale, both in donations, and labor. I know it was a lot of work! Also thanks to those that purchased stuff.
Please keep her in your prayers still. More later...Teresa
