Home Soon

Vera was weaned off Morphine last night (and her neck IV!) and seems to be managing the pain pretty well with Ibuprofen and Paracetamol.

She was in a good mood after 2 knock-out naps in the morning. Clapping her hands, tapping my face, even doing her secret training a couple of times. She managed to cough out her phlegm. Her sats were around 95% most of the time, and was thus spared from her "much-hated" suctioning.

No signs of blood from her adenoids and tonsil sites, a sign that they are healing well. If her bowel movement is good tomorrow, we will be heading home!
