Recovery Day....then Setback.

Kids and I went to see Denise this morning for a couple of hours, she was doing great. The Nurses had her sitting up, walking and on a liquid diet. We skyped family members and everyone agreed she looked great for being in surgery 24 hours ago. We discussed getting released around noon on sunday with her surgeon, said our goodbyes and headed home for lunch.
As we pulled into the driveway the hospital called and said they were wheeling Denise back to OR with some internal bleeding, but didn't seem overly concerned. Routine Hematoma or something like that. I ran back to the hospital in time to see her going in. After another hour long procedure they were able to cauterize a large vessel and suture her back to where the process starts over again...Post-Op recovery, throwing up etc. This latest episode should delay the return home one more day to Monday.

And she was doing fantastic......
