Photos of the Day
Here are a few photos that I took at the hospital today. We arrived at 10:30 and waited until 1:30 before Katie went in for surgery. Remember, she hadn't eaten since 9pm last night. She was really good about food though and we got very few complaints from her today. We just told her it was a "hungry day" and that seemed to suffice. Three of these photos are of her and/or Amy waiting for surgery time to roll around while the fourth photo of Katie with her shirt off shows the incisions on her chest and neck where the doctors worked to place her new port. She has only complained about a little bit of pain, but we gave her Tylenol with codeine and that seemed to fix the problem. In a couple of days, her incisions will heal over well enough to get wet, and then we can move from the sponge bath back into the shower/bath. That will be a special treat.

Hi-
It was so nice to see you today... I'm glad you were able to go home. Eric and Kyler say hello and send hugs and kisses... they miss her and can't wait to see her again! Ryan called tonight to report that they can finally use their cell phones now so he was going to give you a call when he has a minute.
Have a good night and talk to you tomorrow. Love, Auntie Heather
Amy,
My heart goes out to you. It is so hard to accept the fact that one of our children are seriously ill. God will watch over and protect her. My prayers are with you all. Please know that I think of you often.
Love,
Bev Hall
