Sooo - 10 hours on the trach cradle today! And more hours tomorrow!! Still having a bit of bleeding from the lower incision but gradually lessening. She had some of the staples removed from the thoracic incision and the rest will be removed tomorrow. This morning, George (last week's ICU doc) came with Dr. Viner (this week's) to do the handover and summary of the case - he started with - "And this is our medical wonder." She has quite the reputation! A TV was wheeled in this afternoon and she got to watch some of the Ryder Cup.
Lucille and I had a wee tour with Tracy this afternoon of her favourite food haunts in Calgary - many places to return to!!
Wow...how amazing is she? Sounds to me like she could be put right beside the "Energizer Bunny" on a race.My money's on 'Mi Linda Preciosa".
