Emily had a relatively good night although being visited every hour whether to check her pulmonary breathing or to give her movement tests just to assure she still had movement in her legs and arms.
I failed to mention that they did remove the halo at the end of this surgery and she notices it in being able to move her head more freely in bed.
She woke up initially fine, but then began experiencing some discomfort from nerve sensitivity on her stomach. It eventually subsided and she was able to eat egg and croissant, along with some milk and orange juice.
The doctor ordered her a pint of O+ blood just to give her a boost. All levels are normal, but he just felt she could use it for a quicker recovery.
She is to remain on her back through tomorrow and then they will plan to raise her up and go from there.
