Well we feeling pretty good today. Skye is just amazing me with her demeanor I hope she continues in this place of Peace.

God Bless You Bethany!
You will be in my prayers too! Skye is all cleared for surgery and ready to go. She is in great spirits cannot define how she feels. Scared.... no - nervous... no - anxious.... no - peaceful..... I guess - So to that I say Praise God!
Hope to hear from you soon and hope you have the most amazing recovery ever!
Thanks everybody!

Yaay Bethany!
I just peeked on here specifically to see if you were posting yet! Yaay! See you and Skye are on the other side. Yeah Percocets would be my choice Sorry about the nausea. Can't wait to hear more from you. They are removing Skye's chest tube today (that will be interesting ) but then we get to leave ICU... been nice here but I know Skye is looking forward to visitors.
Okay... anticipating good news from you. God is Good!

Hi Bethany,
Wow, you young ones amaze me how quickly you can post so soon after surgery. You are doing great. I hope you aren't taking additional Tylenol with the Percocets because Tylenol is already in Percoset. But your nurses would know that, right? Get lots of rest now and heal quickly.
