Today has gone wonderfully.
T's drains came out today and her PT went extremely well. She's walking some with the walker, and showing a really good range of motion in the new knee.
She is hurting some -- not more than we would expect the first day after total knee replacement surgery. For the most part, she is being kept pretty comfortable with percocet and valium.
It may be, if things continue that she will be discharged tomorrow and come home. That's a day earlier than we were expecting! She's really doing wonderfully.
I can't wait to have her home.

ReplyDelete"Gotta love that girl! What a go getter! So glad she is doing so well. Heap loads of praise on her from me for the hard work through the pain and queasies. Keep some for yourselves for the great supporting role while tired and maybe a bit stained. Hang in there all.
