Day 3 - Hospital (Hip Surgery)

I really don't enjoy all the machines and their beeping continually off and on all night long. She did pretty good last night. She woke up for a bit awhile ago and I asked if she wanted anything and she said to go back to sleep. - 6:30 am

I keep trying to upload pictures but my phone does not like this room. 

The orthopedic nurse Amy and the anesthesia team have been in this morning.  Dani's temp is 100.9 and she looks a bit pale so they are checking her blood draw from last night and we possibly could have to do another one this morning.  Her epidural will come out today and also her catheter.  They are going to start her on two oral pain medications.  I will fill in the names when I get them.  She is acting find and wanted cheese bread (grilled cheese) so I ordered it and hopefully we can get something substantial in her stomach.  She had a cherry popsicle, chocolate milk, and a few animal crackers yesterday.   Just so I get as much information on here as possible last night her heart rate got as high as 164 and this morning it is still in the mid 150s - 8:45 am

Missy Miss is going to be receiving blood shortly and she did eat 1/4 of quite a big hot dog. She just received her second dose of pain medicine. - 2:15 pm

Her blood transfusion is done and the majority of her meds for a bit also.  She asked for sausage pizza and hopefully she eats it. - 6:45 pm

  1. Bella's heart rate stayed in between 130-170's while we were inpatient. I'm praying she continues to recover!!
