Recovering

Sorry for no update earlier, my laptop battery was low. Jess is doing much better today. She spent Thursday night in a special room where they monitored her heart rate over night. When Andrew and I came in this morning she was off the monitor and sitting up in a chair. They also had taken her off the morphine drip by that time and she was on a patient controlled device. Early afternoon, they took her off the morphine completely and she opted for motrin. She went for two walks with the aid of a nurse and around 5:30 began the process of moving back to a regular recovery floor. She got settled and is still in a lot of pain, but all throughout the day her temp and blood pressure were normal and her heart rate was much better. Thank you all again so much for your prayers; we all appreciate your love and support and ask again that you continue to keep Jess in your prayers as she has a long recovery ahead, but praise the Lord the recovery is going well and heading in the right direction. God is so good all the time. The doctor said that if things continue to progress as she expects, then Jess will be able to go home on Monday. So she will be celebrating her birthday in the hospital, but we don’t take that for granted; we praise God and thank Him that she is celebrating it all. God has been our refuge throughout this long ordeal and we would never trade the things that we have learned for anything. That’s all for now, I am actually going to bed early tonight .
