Aimee is sleeping now and had a good night. She's doing well on the Heparin and is also taking a medicine to reduce the pressure in her brain and they seem to be helping.
Yesterday was a really rough day so it's good to see her comfortable and able to rest. In the afternoon yesterday she was moved to the ICU and she was having some major pain issues and disorientation. Now that she's on scheduled pain meds and has the Valium and break through pain meds available she's much more comfortable and hasn't had another episode of confused responses. She has her own nurse that is in with us almost constantly and is monitoring her. They're taking really good care of her.
Last night she started drinking juice and in the middle of the night she even had a milk shake. That is the first "food" she's had since Sunday. They've been keeping her very hydrated with iv fluids, but it's good to see her having a desire to eat and drink again.
Thanks again for all your prayers, love and support! It means the word to us to have such supportive family and friends! If you're not comfortable posting a comment feel free to email me and I'll pass the message along to Aimee and respond as I have time. Love to you all!
