Rough Day

Melissa again had a rough night although she did say that she slept better last night. She ran a fever of 101.6. doctor says that is not unusual after this large of a surgery. She also has a UTI. She blew the IV this morning so they stop everything until they could decide what to do. Long story short--they put in a new line in her arm. Because it was fragile they ended up using the ultrasound to be able to draw blood for cultures. They then decided to put in a central line. They had to try a couple of places because of scar tissue. It turned into a two hour procedure. She is now napping.

The good news is that Felix is already waking up. Besides all the above going on she has walked five times today. Drew wants 10 before the day is over but not sure that will happen. Maybe once more.

The doctors are saying she will probably be here a while longer. What ever it takes.
