Much Better Day!

Good morning, all!

First, let me say I did the royal crash, last night! I got back to Quiz's about 10:30, showered, and laid down to unwind, and found my self doing my imitation of a rock! I slept until 9am.

That was very out of nature, for me! Guess I was tired.

Arrived at the hospital, by 10, and Decah had some yogurt for breakfast, and her head and ear dressing was removed, to my surprise. her incision looks great! Does look like an 6 inch zipper! It starts at the top of the ear, at hair line, and goes all the way down, and around the back of the ear. looks, to me, to be about 6 to 8 inches long. As soon as I got there, she had a shower, and shampoo.

I know that had to feel good! We dressed her in some real clothes (HD naturally), and went for a walk through the hallways. The Physical Therapist has been here twice, already. She gave us a list of exercises for Decah to work on. The therapist was impressed to find us walking, when she returned the second time! I guess I didn't realize, but she has to learn to walk, all over, again. As the therapist said, she has no inner ear on that side, any longer.

Since she didn't sleep last night, we are going to do our best to keep her awake, today, as much as possible, so she can get back on a regular schedule. The doctors want her to be as active, today, as possible, with out getting too tired. So, today, I'm gonna do my drill Sargent routine!

We're expecting a few friends to stop by ,today, which will make Decah feel even better!

I can't believe the difference between today, and last night!

I know I'm late getting this update out, but believe me, we've been busy this morning getting some normalcy back into her life. Seeing her better, certainly makes me feel better!

I will get out an evening update, later.

Thanks, everyone!
