Better~

As awful as yesterday was for Abby, I didn't have high hopes for today. 

The surgeon came in and I held my breath as he removed the bandage from her chest.  I hated the thought of seeing that sore first thing this morning.  And then a miracle! 

It look a thousand times better.  The swelling, oozing and redness were virtually gone. 

The hole is still there, as is the infection, but it doesn't look nearly as angry.  She's fine.  The line can be saved. 

It's unbelievable that in just 12 little hours, what seemed hopeless is restored.  She needs no special treatment and just a few more days of antibiotics.  Amazing!  Seriously, miraculous. 

It changes everything.  A usable home line means she can leave here in a few days, when yesterday her Dr thought she could be here for a month.  At the risk of being repetitive...Amazing!  I am so thankful! 

The Baclofen pump being off is exactly what I thought it would be.  Awful.  She's so stiff and uncomfortable.  She was awake for hours last night.  Not doing anything, just awake :(.  Still hoping that's not the problem with the belly. 

Today, I'll try not to worry about all of that and thank God for some good news that I desperately needed. 

Happy Sunday~
