Carly wasn't feeling great this morning, but that was to be expected so soon after her surgery. By this afternoon things took a turn for the better and since 4pm she has been as peaceful as I have seen the entire time we have been here. She is handling her NG tube feedings well and is now up to a whopping 2 tsp (10 ml) an hour. Tomorrow morning we will begin to taper down the medications that she has been given over the last three weeks. Getting her back to herself without these medications and her being able to nurse are the two main hurdles between us and home. Today I saw a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel for the first time and I expect it will be getting much brighter in the coming days.
Love, Brad

This is great news. We are so happy Carly is finding relief from her pain and is able to handle her feedings. We hope mom and dad will be able to catch up on their sleep debt.
