24 Hours After Sclero
Mood:  cheeky
The reason I chose cheeky as my mood, is because Cassidy is pretty much all cheeks and lip right now.  However she is doing great.  She can't eat enough and wants to be up playing.  I am having a hard time getting her to lay down and ice her mouth-I guess that is a blessing.  She did great last night, only gave her pain meds 2x and she probably would have been fine with tylenol alone, but I didn't want to take the chance.  She finally came out of the anesethsia early this morning and was upset by her swollen lip, but is dealing well with it.  It is extremely hard to eat or drink.  I have to sometimes feed her through a syringe, but she is trying the spoon.  It is rather messy.  The bed is covered in blood stained saliva and her shirt is covered along with her bear, pillow, and blanket.  With her lip so swollen she cannot keep from drooling.  Yet through all this she has MINIMAL complaints.  We are so proud of her and how she is handling all this.  God has definately prepared each of us in our own way to tackle this milestone.
