Good morning Cheryl and Ann. It sounds like our girls are coming along pretty well with their healing. It is hard to believe that it has only been 2 weeks - at times it seems like a month or so. We have seen great improvement in the last 2 days though with Elizabeth. We are able to spread her pain meds out a little farther, the doctor allowed us to add in ibuprofen, and she has slept through the last 2 nights. She gets frustrated at things pretty easily and still gets kind of down, but things are getting better. She is going to go to a friend's birthday party on Friday nite. She won't be able to stay for the movies and sleepover part, but I will take her to the dinner and stay with her so she can leave when she starts getting too tired. At least she feels like going for a while and seeing her friends.
Glad that Briann's post-op went pretty well. I know you must be concerned about the numbness in her thighs. Hopefully over time the feeling will return and there will be no problems. We are still hoping that Elizabeth's hips even out as there is a big curve right now and she is very unbalanced. The doctor said it should balance itself out over the next couple of months, but I am uneasy about it.
I hope that Liz and Briann continue to get stronger every day and can enjoy Christmas as it approaches. Have they had many friends over yet? I am hoping that as Christmas Break comes and things settle down for everyone that more friends will find the time to visit and hang out with Elizabeth. Right now it is just an extremely busy time for everyone. She has had several friends stop by, but I can tell she misses the daily interaction with them.
