Not The Best Night

Yesterday Jess couldn't tolerate any water or her feed. This seems to happen every time she comes out of surgery.  She was vomiting in the afternoon and one more time last night.  We have started clear fluids once again. Hopefully she can keep it down.

The good news is Jessica's pain has been managed with Nubain. The bad news is Nubain is no longer being made. She will be fine for her stay here, however next surgery they are going to have to try a different drug.

Dr Ouellet came in late last night around 11pm to check in on Jess. He said they lengthened the rods 1.5 cm and also removed a wire that no longer was working or needed.  X-rays will be done on her back today to see how things look and then X-rays will be mailed to him in three months.
