Sara's new "doo"

Well - Brad here again - Blog attempt #2.
Lots of progress for Sara today. I couldn't sleep last night - as usual lately + the polar bear in the next room named Rog - no wonder Jane always has that angry-dazed look. - so I got out of bed and headed for the hospital around 6 am. Sara was awake, too. The sleep medicine didn't work well last night.
I was informed that she had a cat-scan at 4 am that revealed - air in her head - big surprise, I know. The tumor left a space that needed to close in so they wanted to keep her in the intensive care unit for 1 more day for observation. She still had her drain hose out the top of her head, and all the other yucky stuff that makes most men feel faint.
We cancelled our kids' journey with Aunt Brenda to see us when we heard the news, because they can't come in the intensive care area.
About 9 am the Dr. came by and seemed to change everything that was told to us. He said he was not worried at the air in her head (???) because the space was small. Then he decided to "yank" the tube out of her head because it no longer "held suction." Fortunately a great nurse was there to step in to slow him down long enough to get some fresh pain killer in Sara's head.
Then --- Yank... Staple gun.....Then Brad sits down for a while....
He informed us that we could possibly come home tomorrow - if all goes good. That was a surprise, but we'll see how it goes.
About 11 am they came in and said "We're moving.." and off we went to a private room out of intensive care... Yay! (but the nurses are a little on the crazy side here.)
Rog and Jane came by for a visit.
I can tell that Sara is getting better because she is saving less of her hospital food for her loving husband. I had to go to the cafeteria for grub.



Cam and Michelle Kelsch from our ward stopped by - Thanks for the gift bag - especially the warm Mrs. Fields cookies that Sara never knew about. Bishop Nelson also stopped by - Thanks for the support.

Thanks for the fruit boquet Cindy and Lois Jones and flowers Lauri and Phoebe and girls.

By the way, before the drain was "yanked" they unbandaged Sara's head - and Wa-laaah!!

Here are some sweet pictures. Thankfuly, she no longer resembles the Klingon's on Star Trek New Generation, without the hose across her forehead under the skin.

We just had dinner - it looked great, but it's off to the cafeteria for me again.
