GOOD NEWS!!!!

Today has been the best day Cindy has had since she's been in the hospital. YEA!!!!!!!!!
She wasn't nauseated this morning and there hadn't been much coming out of her stomach since midnight so they pulled out the tube. Her blood tests are all coming back much better and the enzymes from her pancreas are coming down. She started taking some clear liquids this afternoon and that has gone well. I've been talking to her on the phone and her voice is again strong. This morning she could only whisper. She is hoping that they can still do surgery yet this week, but that is quite doubtful. She was in such terrible shape this weekend and now it is just a total turnaround - truly a miracle!! She will probably remain in the hospital yet and a few days after surgery, but at least she is doing better! She is trying to talk them into letting her come home for a couple days, but with the external tubes and the bags holding the spinal fluid, I don't think that will happen.

All the prayers everyone has been offering up for her are being answered - Thank you all so much!!!

This is the best news I've heard in weeks! I'm so thrilled that she is having a good day. This is just wonderful!! I'm praying that things will continue to go this way, that she'll have the surgery when the time is right, and that she'll be on her way home. We were all so down and discouraged over the weekend, as I know all of you were. This was just such wonderful news to read! We are rejoicing with you!
