Day Three


Janene's pain is finally better. Hopefully she is asleep now. Maureen has been trying to get her calmed down and asleep. They changed her pain meds and it seemed to work. That was a bad long haul of no pain meds last night because of different issues. She is really strong. I would have been crying like a baby.
The doctors have been trying to get Lydia's balance of respiration and pressure on her kidneys and liver. There is so much fluid and the liver is so big that there is a lot of pressure on everything. The liver is doing more and more of what it is supposed to and everything is starting to re balance out like a normal body. It will take some time but it will happen.
They took the bandage off so that the wound can air out and not grow mushrooms under it. Here are some pictures.

  2. Wow what an eventful few days you have had. Janene is one tough mommy. I remember the pain being quite intense the first few days even with the pain meds. I can't imagine how she managed without anything. I am happy that Lydia is still happily sedated and praying that she will continue to do well and the pressure will subside.

Spenc and Lydia enjoying some brocolli (at least the taste of it for Lydia since she just sucks out the flavor and spits it out)
