10/16 Danni is out of surgery and was moved into her room at about 11 A.M. She is pretty tired and having quite a bit of gas pain that radiates up to her shoulder. Otherwise, she is doing good. I will be staying with her tonight at the hospital. So I will update you again tomorrow morning. Just wanted to let you all know.
10/17 Thanks everyone for your kind words. I just got home from the hospital this morning. Danni is doing good, but poor thing, last night she itched so bad from the morphine. I was miserable for her - it would have driven me crazy! I am glad I stayed there to help her out - everyone knows I would have done anything for her. At about 2 this morning, she requested that they remove the continuous morphine, but by 3 A.M. she was in so much pain (from the gas radiating up to her shoulder) that she had to go back on it. They also gave her an injection of Toradol and it knocked her out. She needed that. When I was leaving the nurse was there to take the cath out and Danni requested that they remove the morphine because she was still itching so bad. She has a positive attitude though - she said if this is the worse she has to go through then this is nothing. She is doing well and getting up for her walks. She was actually up at 1 P.M. yesterday walking and she did not even get to her room until 11 A.M. Amazing!
