Day 2, October 8, 2009

Day 2 has been a better day. Lou Ann was awake and eating without nausea. Doctor Patrick Proffer was very pleased. Her range of motion in her arms is much better than what he expected. He took away her IV and her PCA machine. She is now only on oral pain pills. The pills are doing good in controlling her pain. She said that she has more discomfort than actual pain. She has received many beautiful plants/flowers over the last two days. Lou Ann has been up and around a great deal today. She made the comment that she had done too much today. Her pain level has come up as did the nausea with the pain. They have given her meds to cut down the nausea. She is waiting on her next round of pain pills as well as something to help her sleep. Lou Ann is so strong and her beauty is still shining through in everything she is going through.

  1. I am so relieved to hear Lou Ann is doing so well. We continue to lift each of you in prayer daily. I really like your last statement that said, "Lou Ann is so strong and her beauty is still shining through in everything she is going through." I am not surprised because Lou Ann always has a light of joy that shines out from her and reflects on everyone around her.

  2. I'm not suprised at all that Lou Anns beauty is shining through. That is exactly how I picture her...as well as your whole family.

    Thanks for this blog to keep us updated. I'm praying.
