It's a roller coaster ride!

I spoke too soon, darn it! Amanda is back in ICU and having surgery today. I'm so bummed about it. Because all of her ribs were broken, one or some of them are pressing on her lungs and causing a fluid buildup near the wound site that they operated on when they fused her vertebrae. So the "team" after many x-rays and CT scans decided they needed to do this..........I do trust their judgement but gosh, it is a step back.................at least from such a great day as yesterday. Hopefully this will preclude any further surgery and also speed up the removal of the trach...................keep those prayers and positive thoughts going to Amanda - she still needs them! "Bless her heart" as we say in the South! I'm still in Houston.............
