Hi,
Tom and I spoke to Annie tonight and they might take the IV off tonight
when the doctor stops by. She sounds pretty good. She said she has
been up & walking around some today. She said the pain was pretty bad
this morning when she awoke because the nurses didn't give her any pain
medication at 4:00 a.m. when it was due. She didn't wake up until
around 6 p.m. The nurses said it is still her responsibility to notify
them when she needs her pain medicine. Now how is she to do that when
she is sound asleep?? Annie said she really appreciates all of the
prayers people are saying for her and all of the well-wishes they're
sending her. We put the kids on the phone w/her and I'm sure that made
her day. She loves the kids like crazy.
Anyway, I guess my parents-in-law and my sister-in-law Regina will let
us know what happens next. Tom didn't ask Annie and I was too afraid to
ask her myself. She has been allowed to eat a little vegetable soup.
She got my card (I sent her a real funny one that read "I heard you've
been laid up....(inside) but then my hearing isn't always that good so
at first I was real happy for you!, etc.) and she got the cancer diet
book & tape (from Cris). And she got the daily reader I bought her. It
was written by a cancer survivor. I enjoy my daily ACoA reader
tremendously, so I thought she might enjoy a daily reader, too -
pertaining to her situation, of course.
Anyway, that's all the news on Annie. I'm glad she's feeling better.
I'll keep you posted.
-Jean
