dialysis and more morphine

another day behind us at Mayo. Dea's dialysis was much later in the day today than we expected, but she adapted. the pain from the surgery seems to be quite manageable for her, and the incision site is doing well, but the lingering nausea from the anesthesia has been an issue. she began eating for the first time just a couple hours ago - over 48 hours without any food.

it was a fairly rough day, but she's making progress. tomorrow should be a much better day. she should be able to eat, move around a little more, and begin thinking about getting back to Chicago.

i'll keep updates coming.
