Recovery - part 2



After a few hours of sleeping, our little princess woke up. Mia was crying that it hurt and she wanted it off, referring to her new "hat". We were trying to get her to roll over onto her left side so her right side wouldn't swell up but Mia didn't want anything to do with that. Alittle bit later she had to go to the bathroom so I carried her there as Brandy brought along her IV trolley. Once we got back to our room, Mia was ok with laying on her left side. It didn't take long when Mia was asking for some food. We gave her the options of juice, Popsicle or some jello because she could eat some soft food. That led to "how 'bout a pancake, cause they're soft daddy?" Well, we are not pancake stage yet so she opted for a blue popsicle. Now Mia and Brandy are lying down together. So far, things are going pretty well for everything Mia has gone thru today. We should get to talk to the doctor tomorrow so we'll have some more information about how she's progressing and when we might be able to bring Mia home.

  2. What a big girl!!! So proud of her and you guys!! Along with what Kathy said, maybe she can decorate her princess hat when it comes off or maybe another one could be made for her if not useable. Thinking of you guys! Thanks for the updates.
