Today, for the first time since 7:30 Monday morning, we got to see that beautiful gummy smile that we were used to our Amelia showing us. She was finally weaned off the oxygen this morning and we removed the nasal cannula. Shortly afterwords, she erupted into a huge gummy grin!!! It was the first grin since we duped her on the way to the OR Monday morning. She continues to get back to herself. She is talking to us again and the pain seems to be getting better. The pain meds she is on continue to be weaker strength meds (aka no more Morphine). We are starting to look forward to going home. That should happen before the month is over. We are kind of sad about that because we started to plan Halloween activities with other families who were stuck in the ICU for the special day. Every day she is getting better!!!
We continue to be grateful for all your love and prayers. Thank you so much!!!
Amelia, Kim and Brian
