Good news! The new pain medication has really helped. Kim is feeling much better. She was able to swallow liquids better today. The doctor warned that her swelling might increase tomorrow, but we will hope that doesn't have a huge effect. Dr. Wolfed said he will probably release her from the hospital on Sat. They have to make sure she can take oral pain medication and get a lot of liquids down. The pressure bandage got removed from her stomach today and she will wear a pressure wrap for about a week. It is removable, so she can shower tomorrow. She can't wait!
Thanks for the prayers! God has kept us at peace and given us a lot of strength this week.

  2. Vicki, what's with the stomach area? Did they graft from there? I am praying for all of you -- let me know any specifics. Blessings!
