No more strings!

All that is left is an IV port! No more push button pain relief or machines that beep all night! We had a great day overall! Lacey is able to get in and out of bed by herself, she can go to standing by herself and even asks to go on walks! We made laps around the floor today and even did stairs! She has been awake most of the day and is feeling really worn out. She needed one relief dose of morphine through her IV, but everything else has been oral...that is the the goal, all oral meds that she can take at home. Today was our first day of visitors...Lacey's good friend Hannah and her mom Katie came all the way from Modesto to say "Hi", and they brought us sparkling apple juice to bring in the new year! My mom and sister-in-law brought my kids and my niece for a good visit ( they brought us dinner, so good) and Brad came, bringing Lacey her favorite, a cinabon cinnamon roll, she ate the whole thing! Around 6:00 they took Lacey down for a standing Xray...it was way too much for her, she was in so much pain. They were able to make her comfortable and she is resting now. Thank you for your love and continued, prayers and support! Big hugs to all!

  1. I'm so glad she is getting around a little bit. And I'm sure the visitors perked up her spirits. Happy new year for a bionic Lacey! Give her our best!
