Tuesday 10:30 am - the day after

Nancy is in an ICU room, and they've managed her pain to a great degree, so she's relatively comfortable. The pain medicine makes her prone to nausea, though, so the ministrations of the Physical Therapist and the respiratory therapist make her pretty dizzy.

They have her sitting in a chair now for a few hours, and she's sleeping.

The recovery is going to be difficult, but her posture when she briefly stood up was straighter than ever.

  1. Wow! What an ordeal and what great strength (and good humor) you both have. Unbelievable that Nancy is sitting up...for a few hours no less. Glad they are better managing her pain. Please give her my love. Hang in there!
