Thursday morning

Hannah had a pretty good night. They started the heparin at a really low dose and she didn't have any bleeding which was big. They will take her back to surgery this afternoon ( it's scheduled for 1:45) to repack all the dressings in her abdomen and to see if things are clotting as they should. If things look good and there's no more bleeding today and tonight they will talk about closing her up tomorrow. They also will probably put in a line in for dialysis. Her kidneys aren't working too well yet.

When they first brought her back from surgery I was expecting a 4-5 inch incision but it actually is huge! I wasn't prepared for that. As Hannah is usually quite proud of all her war wounds, she will probably think it's cool. Ha ha She has a big scar on her leg from a bypass a few years ago and whenever anyone asks how she got it she says, "shark attack." This scar will definitely add some credibility to her story.
So happy we are seeing progress and we are trying to be patient with the healing process but I am so anxious to have her open her eyes and show some recognition. I know she's in there, but I can't wait to have her back.
