Better each day

It's been awhile since my last post, sorry. It's crazy to think that surgery was just ten days ago. I look at Lacey and see all that she has overcome and all that she is now able to do...amazing. The pain has tapered off a ton...in the past three days she has not had pain above a 4 ( pain level 1= good 10=bad). She is awake more, still one lengthy nap in the late morning, but then she is up for the rest of the day! She has showered, washed her hair and shaved her legs!!! We have made several trips upstairs and tons of bathroom trips...(no more blockage issues!) She has found the only chair in our house that is comfortable is the canvas camping chair that is worn and ugly, but she can manage to sit in it for about 45 minutes at a time! It feels good to her to walk, but bending over is still very painful. Our past two nights have been really good, we have found the perfect nighttime drug cocktail for her! She had her first outing today! She showered and got dressed in something that would show off how straight she was and we headed off to the last hour of church! She did great, she said the last ten minutes were really hard to sit and she was so tired. She came home and went right to bed. For a first time out, I say it was good! I know she is doing so well because we have support from so many...Thank you!
