Abby's Surgery - out of surgery

Abby is out of surgery and doing fine. She has woken up a little bit and had some apple juice and a popsicle. She is a bit moody ... loving, sweet, and thougtful one minute then a bit snappy and crabby the next. Understandable. She is excited that her little brother Lukey Boy, Mimi and Pa (corey's parents) and Pop (miriam's dad driving from St. Louis) are going to come see her in the hospital. Abby really wants her IV out but she has to leave it in for a while. She is sleeping right now. She is really doing an excellent job so far. We don't know yet if Abby has to stay the night. The original plan was that she had to but there is a possiblity we may be coming home tonight.

We are satisified with the way things are going at Children's Mercy Hospital. One big plus is that there is wireless access available.


Abby hasn't woken up all the way yet. Sweet girl!

Notice the "arm band" around baby doll's waist. Because Baby Doll Crandall was going to the operating room with Abby, bdc (baby doll crandall) had to have a an identifier on. Abby chose for bdc to have a belt. Kind of stylish huh?
