Hello! Still Nancy here blogging for Becki. Wow what an amazing woman our Becki is! Brain surgery in the morning and entertaining visitors after lunch. This picture shows Becki in her hospital room. Important things to look for...
1. Becki giving thumbs up to everyone
2. Ice mask over eyes to help with headache
3. Oxygen mask (required)
4. Fancy pre-warmed blankets
During my 20 minute visit, Becki was talking up a storm, wanting to know all of the details of her surgery and exactly what the pictures of "the bubble" looked like. Much to her chagrin, she cannot open her eyes for a while until the ice mask is off and Dr. says it is OK to open them. None-the-less, she was delighted to hear that the "after" bubble photo showed a completely clean slate --- and to what my non-technical eye looks like a delightfully healthy brain.
Becki still has quite a headache, but is delighted to report that overall from before surgery to now the pain seems to be diminished.
She is in wonderful spirits, Rod is SOOOOOO delighted.. And will betcha he sleeps better tonight than he has in a longtime.
Major thumbs up -- a successful day for a strong woman and a strong and devoted husband, Rod.

Today's news just keeps getting better and better. Glad to see a thumbs up from Becki and know that she is alert and talking. It's amazing given that she had brain surgery just a few hours ago!

ReplyDeleteWOW....I got chills looking at this photo of Becki! It's gone and she's smiling. I'm amazed but not surprised. I knew that "bubble" was in trouble. So happy for Rod that he can relax a little yet I know he'll be there with her through it all! Pam & Bill
