Around 5:00pm, we got the call that she had been moved to her room and that we were able to quickly say hello.
Our visit was quick, but she looked great (all things considered!) Her coloring was good, she was awake and in true 'mom fashion' asking us questions about different happenings in each of our lives throughout today.
The room she is in is private! This is a praise as they were unsure that there would be any private spaces available. It over looks the river and even has a little (heavy emphasis on little :) ) place for my dad to stretch his legs and maybe sneak a little bit of rest. The view overlooks the river and I anticipate that tomorrow's sunrise will undoubtedly provide a spectacular view (in more ways than one) as she celebrates the newness of the day and the newness of this portion of her journey.
Another praise, when we saw her, the epidural was still going and she 'reported' that her pain level was manageable. I am uncertain as to how long they will keep the epidural running but confident that they will do their best to keep her pain as managed as possible!
We are hopeful that this first night of recovery will prove as rest-filled (for both my mom and dad) and positive as possible and that in the morning, as the sun rises over the river, both are filled with incredible hope, indescribable peace and unquestionable faith as they continue to make forward steps on this 'summitin'g journey.
Please continue to pray over her lymph system...that the pathology report will cite her entire body as being CANCER-FREE!!!!
Thank you for the continued prayers and for all of your emails of encouragement today...we are making sure to share them all with my mom...you are truly her cheerleaders!
Be blessed.
