Surgery is Over

We arrived at the hospital this morning at 5:50 a.m.  They took her back shortly after we had prayer together.  I was able to see her twice before she went into surgery.

Martha Marie finished with surgery around 11:05 a.m. and was moved to a recovery room.  After recovery, she was moved to a private intensive care room.  This is normal practice after a major procedure.  She is expected to be in the ICU room for about 24 hours.  Following her ICU room, she will be moved to a regular room.

We were able to see her at 1 p.m.  after she was moved to her ICU room.  She is sleeping peacefully now and will continue to be medicated while in her ICU room.  She does have a headache, but we were expecting that as routine for this procedure.  She may sleep most of the time or also may wake up from time to time.  I am still waiting to hear from the doctor to see how the process of surgery went and to hear his perspective of what recovery looks like for her.

I will update more when I hear from the doctor.
