Good morning and good news- recovery day 1

Recovery day #1:
This morning around 6 am I called to check on my little lamb and she is doing great.  She had a fantastic night with no problems.  We all got quickly dressed and dad, Drew and I headed to the hospital. 
Once we got there her nurse updated us with great news.  She said she had a fantastic night and the only small problem they had was that her sodium levels were a litle low, so they just restricted her I.V. fluids a little.  She has been on room air all morning and her oxygen levels are great.  To our surprise, her swelling was very minimal.  It could get worse, but it is a lot less than expected and she can still open her eyes. 
Her drain tube is started to run clearer (which is good) and they might even take off her dressings as early as tonight.  She will get to drink some clear fluids in a few hours and they will see how that goes. 
I am heading back in there now to sit with her awhile.  We will keep everyone updated on her progress!  Your prayers are lifting her up, friends!
