Pediatric ICU Graduation

After 24 hours in the Pediatric ICU, Claire got to move to the recovery floor of the hospital where she will be for the next 3 or 4 days until we go home. They have been telling us the day after surgery is much harder on the kids than surgery day. So far they are right. She hasn’t been very comfortable and hasn’t eaten like she did yesterday and last night. Her swelling is still getting worse as they said it would for 48 hours after surgery. The surgeon saw her this morning and had to cut her little head dressing because it was a little too tight for her. We have been in the recovery room for about three hours and she is finally resting a little, hopefully it stays that way for a while.
