Recovering Peacefully

It was a long and sleepy day which was good for recovery! Alyssa is still doing great and is proving to us all just how incredibly strong she really is. Thanks again for the outpouring of hearfelt prayers and well-wishes- it makes these days so much brighter! Looking forward to seeing you all.

Alyssa is doing well today. I just got done holding her for the first time since her operation. She is back in her baseline O2 of 1L. Her catheter and one of her chest tubes is out. If all goes well, she will be transferred to step-down tomorrow. She pointed to some animals in a book but has mostly been sleeping. She's doing wonderful! We couldn't be happier with her progress so far.
