    Praying for you. Thinking of you. I know this is an anxious time, try to relax and if you need something while you wait ask the nurse. We are here waiting for you.

    Doing well. Very sore, but better than I thought I'd be. I am NPO (nothing by mouth) but I can swab my mouth with ice water. Just the little bit of water I swallowed there told me there were big changes in my stomach. I had a little nausea this AM, so I got zofran and it's gone. I was walked very briefly, and after I sat I felt better. Catheter working better now that I am up. I hope things keep going this well.
