Looking East and West

Like cold water to a weary soul, so is good news from a distant land. Proverbs 25:25

Friday afternoon Josie update

Yes, they are getting later and later.

That is because as Josie is doing better she is keeping me busier.
Did I mention the last chest tube came out yesterday?

Josie's lungs are also slowly looking better and clearer.
Our next job is to wean her off the high flow nasal dodad and some of the medications delivered that way and get her moved to a smaller (and more comfortable) setup.

The high flow setup limits her movements and she can't really eat or drink until it is gone.

But again, we can't make changes suddenly with miss sensitive, so we will move her down slowly.

Still in a funk

Josie was still in a funk this morning, but we got out her jammies.  Then the first package arrived.  Josie got mail, and the excitement really perked her up and improved her attitude.  The first package had the MOST deluxe teddy bear in it (Love it), then mail came with a CD with a story Josie is listening to, a special get well card from Auntie Cris, and a little lamb from Ms. Kathleen.  
New friends and old

The sheer excitement did Josie a lot of good and I left her making a big ol crafty mess.

recovery is a bit messy
