A Little Better

To try and figure out what was going on yesterday Abby had: blood work, a chest xray, belly xray, belly ultrasound and an echocardiogram. The doctors found nothing abnormal going on anywhere so they think the pain is most likely a combination of her chest tube and back up bowels.

She woke up this morning in a much better mood and did some good work with the physical therapist. She even walked all the way to the play room! I think it wore her out. This afternoon our goal is to figure out how to wash her hair. She has some serious bed head going on!

The chest tubes are still putting out a lot of fluid so we're not making much forward movement there. :(

Glad she's feeling a little better. She's such a little trooper (as are you, Bryan & Anna) and we know she'll continue to make strides. Tell her she's got a Batman costume waiting to be played in as soon as she's up for it!

Thinking of you guys Ali. Abby is a little trooper and I know she'll be on mend soon. Deep breaths and lots of candy. xoxo, Amy
