LaRea's Hospital update

LaRae is out of bed. She was scared at first. Rennie from Physical Therapy help get her out of bed. She still refused to walk. Rennie wasn't sure if she was scared since it was the first time she was out of bed since surgery or if the IV that is in her foot is causing the pain. Some else might be going on with her legs from the surgery. So now it's another wait in see processes until the doctors can take out the IV.

We thought she was going to be home by Thursday at the lastest. The doctors are now thinking maybe by Saturday. LaRae for some reason has stopped eating and drinking. Her bowls have slow down to much too. Her GI ordered a Sweat test. We will have those results sometime tomorrow. She is still is in a lot of pain. The doctors keep changing her pain medicine.

On a good not. She is really funny with the nurses and doctors. She doesn't say Hi to them, but when they leave the room she says bye to them. She has learn a new word "ouch". She shakes her head no every time they come near her. When the tech was taking off the tape from the Sweat test she was saying Thank you. The one nurse taught her how to stick out her tough. Now she stick out her tough at the doctors when they are leaving with the binkie in her mouth. They just laugh at her because they think she is so cute.  LaRae has a red wagon while she is here. Because of the incision of her back it is stuff with pillows so I take her rides around the hallways and she spends a lot of time it in the room watching movies. She is going to be spoil before she leaves here.

I hope we get out of here soon. I miss my bed and sleep.
