Haley was in surgery when we showed up Wednesday. They had an extra operating room so she got in first thing that morning. DH & I sat around all day waiting for her to get out of surgery. There’s not much as boring as that. She went in at 9:30am and was done by 2:30pm but didn’t get to her room until about 4:30pm. All went well. She now has a couple of plates in her arm and a bunch of screws. Everything went back together in find order and should mend well. She got moved upstairs to the 8th floor from the 6th floor and she is doing fine other than pain. Today she gets up and moves around and she starts to do some therapy on her arm to get it moving. It was mentioned that she MIGHT get discharged today but I think that is alot of wishful thinking. We don’t plan on it happening until tomorrow. She is no longer on morphine but on pain pills. They have her unplugged from most everthing. So, here I sit, keeping her company. Her Dad will be up later.

Haley is recovering fine. She has been going to therapy and the 4th she will go to get her stitches out. Hopefully we can see what her x-ray looks like. She is back to work but she can’t drive for another 4 weeks at least.
