Chris and I travelled home this morning. Paula is with mom and things are going well. She was moved from ICU and,  although very sore, is progressing well. Her dressing was changed and physio had her up in bed. Mom was able to take some fluids for supper. I will be talking to Paula later this evening and will update at that time.

Paula checked in by phone on mom who is still in the ICU. She called around 9  last evening and again at 4 AM this morning (Thursday Nov 8, 2012). The nurse said mom was doing well and there were no issues. We will beheaded to the hospitial around 7:30 AM  and will update around lunch today.

Mom Chris Paula and I arrived at Saint John Regional around 9:00 AM. David drove over and was on hand at around 10:00 AM. They  x-rayed mom and took some blood before being wheeled into surgery at 10:40 AM.

 

The surgery was scheduled to begin at 11:30 AM we were not sure when Dr Abraham actually began. The surgery was to take approx 5 hours and then she was to be put into recovery.

 

Dr Abraham came to see us about 5:15 PM. Mom got along well. They inserted 4 new rods. She was moved to ICU. Paula, Chris and I were able to see her in ICU. She is awake and extubated. She is very sore but her vitals are all stable. Paula will be at the hospital in the morning. More info will be posted then.
