Deb is finally in a room. I had hoped to get up here before she did, but her aunt and I walked in to find that she was already here with two of the floor nurses hovering over her. That, at least, made me feel better. I just wanted to make sure Deb didn't get dropped off and left alone for any length of time.
The only problem I had was that the room temperature was set to "Ice-box" when we got here. Deb didn't think it was so bad, but then she's well bundled in several layers of hospital sheets and blankets, so go figure. Happily, the nurse told me I was free to reset the thermostat, so I am no longer having to plan a trip out to get parkas for her aunt and me.
Deb is in some pain, but the morphine pump is really taking that down a bunch of notches, so she isn't complaining. She's awake right now, but is still pretty groggy so I don't know how much longer that will last. Once her aunt leaves I will try to let her get some sleep for a bit until Todd shows up again to see her.
She looks good. Of course, she always looks good to me, but she does look like she's come through this rather well.
Maybe one more post tonight, maybe not.
