Good morning good people.!!! Two more Updates from Lexys page....
Its midnight Lex is chatty patty on the phone, we wont get interrupted until 3am, she has her button for pain case needed. She had a quick sickness possible from anesthesia, but felt good after it came out. She got out of the johnny and put regular pjs on. We also, when we were alone, she asked to see her legs. One has a wrap pumping circulation on her good leg and her temporary not weight bearing prosthetic looks good. I was able to throw a flipflop on it thanks to Bob for making the space and its ready for a pedicure. She was okay looking at her new piece. Its very awkward for her with the epidural the having no feeling below waste, she wants to move. The right foot she tried hard and got it to move a little. I wouldnt expect anything less from her, she has the drive and desire. Keep believing !
and this morning...
A new day to a new life and its sunny and I dont think Lexy slept maybe 3 hrs total on & off. Lexy is not in any pain, she is feeling pins needles from it wearing off, they shifted her through the night. She is getting some feeling in her right leg. Kai just came in 630 the anesthesiologist and spoke to her. He wants no pain at all below the waste for the transition, so her epidural med will increase and will stay in until prob.Sunday. Kai couldnt believe how she looked so good. Overall not a bad night just very dry in here and the pain med make u very itchy, so we are getting more of that med shortly only can get it 4 hrs. Nurse Jess was sweet too. Lets see what the day brings
