Post Surgery Day #2 Update

Today has been similar to yesterday...which is a praise!

Praises:
-My mom got up to walk again this afternoon.  She was able to walk to the end of the hall and sit in a recliner in a common sitting area where she got to enjoy the view looking over the river. They were even hoping to get her up to walk one more time before bed!
-The nursing staff caring for her has been fantastic thus far!
-She was able to sleep through the night last night and slept the majority of the day today.
-The time in the hospital (for my dad) seems to go by rather quickly throughout the day.
-Learning that she is doing as well as she possibly could be doing after such a long and complicated procedure.

Prayer Requests:
-That her digestive system would begin to 'reboot' itself, so she can begin to drink and ultimately eat again soon.
-For continued ability to manage her pain well.
-For consistent and effective pain management once the epidural is removed.
-That her body would continue to gain strength as she rests.
-For continued caring and patient nursing staff.
-For a truly MIRACULOUS and CLEAR pathology report, for the lymph system to NOT BE AFFECTED.
-For God's glory to remain at the forefront of this journey.

Once again, thank you for your continued prayers...thank you for praying so specifically and fervently.

May you be blessed as this new week begins.
