| She's got a book ... now I know I've got my girl back Last night she finally beat the pain! She had a great night. From now on during the day she will be on the morphine pump during the day and then a very strong pain medication and a muscle relaxer will be added around 9 pm to keep her pain reasonable throughout the night. She and I have been laughing this morning at some the funny things she has said and done during the night while on a lot of pain meds. One night she loudly volunteered the spelling of our last name randomly in the middle of the night. I woke up to "PIPER ... P-I-P-E-R", I guess she thought a nurse was in the room and asked for it. That was a good one but she may have beaten it last night by announcing she was a yoga instructor and then a few hours later saying "ok mom" before putting her iv tube on her arm up to her lips like a straw. She was thirsty and thought it was me standing next to her doing our normal routine of me holding her cup by her face and her using a straw to drink. |
