Night-night

By Pete, in Terri's room.

After about two more hours in recovery, they released Terri to her room. I found it thru the maze three buildings over and waited an hour before they wheeled her in. Got to meet the nurses, at least tonight's shift. Got Terri all hooked up to the various tubes and wires.

She is still on oxygen for now, and fully set up with self-medicating morphine drip. Too bad you have to go thru the major surgery portion of the Baylor Spa package just to get the Bliss package...

She has been able to handle a few ice chips, but so far, even that makes her a bit nauseous. They added another splash to her mix to smooth that out. Of course, the food tray arrived just then with menu shown above. Minus the tea, which is really all she could've handled anyway...

The boys arrived a bit ago to check up on her, and offerred to go fetch some pizza... For us three.

Just as they got back, another spa option showed up - the respiratory therapist. Breathe in breathe out...
