At Home doing well

I brought Karen home yesterday around noon and she rested all afternoon and had a good night of sleep, helped by pain medication. Today she is up and about and we enjoyed a good iChat with the McNabbs on the computer before they headed off to a basketball game.

Thanks for your prayers!

Going home today

Karen did well last night and is getting up and around the hospital room. This morning Dr. Rob Hix made rounds and gave her the OK to be discharged so hopefully by lunch we will be taking Karen home.

Thanks,

Resting in her room

Karen's surgery went well and she is resting in her room now. She is expected to spend the night and go home tomorrow. Right now she is about to get a dinner of clear fluids, Jello & broth, yum!

In Recovery

I just talked to Dr. Paige Partridge-Hix and everything went well. Karen is in recovery right now and will be moving to her room in a little while. Thanks again for your prayers.

back in the OR

Karen is now in surgery at Willow Creek. Dr. Atwood got started right at 8am with the continuation of the reconstruction and should be finished around 10am. At that point Dr. Paige Partridge Hix will finish. Karen will spend the night in the hospital which may be a good thing because the weather is getting bad here in Fayetteville!

Thanks for all of your prayers, emails and calls of support. Karen's mom and dad, Mary and Victor, are at our house keeping the kids. Lots of people have asked about bringing us food during Karen's recovery and Stephanie Rosenfeld is graciously managing a meals list. If you are interested, Email me at dblasing@gmail.com and I will get you her contact info.

Thanks again,
Daniel Blasingame
