Mom was moved out of critical care yesterday afternoon. The doctor said this is one step closer to her going home, which I think it was a bit troubling for her to hear because she stills feels so poorly and almost cannot imagine being well enough to go home.
Today was probably her hardest day since surgery, both physically and emotionally. She had some physical "milestones" (IV meds removed and on pain pills, catheter removed), but these changes also brought some discomfort and "yucky" feelings. It is hard to see someone you care about in pain even though you know it is part of the healing process: physically, mentally, and spiritually.
I'm headed up early tomorrow morning after having most of today "off" since my brother was here for the weekend. I'm praying she gets a good night of restful sleep and can have a more encouraging day tomorrow. Thanks for praying.
