Surgery Over - PHEW!

Ashlings surgery is done! Woo hoo.

It was a long day - Ash went to theatre at 8:30 and we didn’t get to see her til 4:30pm.

It sounds like the surgery was a success. There were no complications thank God. We had a chat with the surgeon on the phone and he was very happy with everything. We will see him tomorrow. 

Ash has been brought to the intensive Care Unit and she has a 1 on 1 nurse taking care of her here. She is still being ventilated, as was pretty much predicted- So they are going to continue to give her respiratory support, keep her drugged and pain free in ICU tonight, and then tomorrow they will change tactics a little. They say that rest is the most important thing for her now. She has not woken up yet and it looks like they want her to continue resting.

They have given us a room to sleep in so we will be close by. The care has been fantastic. 

Thank you all SO much for all your prayers.

Much love,

Us
