Good Morning

Patty slept a little better last night without any interruptions. She still doesn't feel completely rested as she has to sleep on her back due to the drains. She is used to sleeping on her side and she can't move too much due to the drains and the soreness. Her right arm was really hurting her when she got up this morning so she took some medicine to help ease it off.

She is still extremely sore. Not just in her chest and arms but her neck and head as well due to the positions they had her in during surgery. She is eating good. She had one of her favorites last night, a baked potato and salad, and ate most of it. Laverne called this morning and asked if she wanted any breakfast and Patty said she did.

We talked to the girls this morning and they are doing well. They were excited to get to talk to Mommy and hear her voice. I think that eased their minds as to how she was doing. The house they're staying in has a crow's nest to look out over the area. Kendall keeps telling them she's going up to the "bird's nest" to check on the weather.

Hopefully, she will get some more rest today and gain back some energy. We continue to appreciate everyone's prayers.
