ANGIE’S JOURNEY DAY 4   4 comments

Another really good night. She was up walking the hall’s until 12:30 am. Bound and determined to get her bowels working again on her own versus the help they want to give her.Its truly amazing mom is getting more sleep than Angie, sleeping on the padded ledge by the window. She won’t let me relieve her(mother henn). They are still waking her every hour for blood sugar levels. ouch!!! sore fingers. Praise GOD!!! She is doing so well, although she doesn’t think so. We have some emotions going on but how could we not with all she has dealt with the last few days. They told us there would be up and down days. It has been a very busy day with walking the halls, getting up to use the restroom, physical therapy and just the hospital in general. They have had quite a time keeping her blood sugar regulated today. Its been any where from 89 to 159 but have been increasing food intake and this is to be expected.They plan on upping her food intake again(feeding tube) in the morning. Once they get her to 45ml a day, they will take her off insulin drip and only have to check blood sugar every 4 hours, hopefully by tomorrow evening. Physical therapy just had her walking in the hall and made her do 3 squats(small ones) that really upset everything. She has muscles talking to her that were abused during surgery and are now being stretched and not liking it. She is so strong and determined.What an inspiration she is to the people around her. Praise the LORD!!!! Doctors were just in and are very happy with her progress.

We want to thank everyone for your continued support and prayers!!!
