Sandra said it was a difficult night. A lot of crying by Lauren and complaints of head pain. Emotionally she is a wreak, certainly from pain, drugs, hunger and anesthesia. She was crying to Sandra that she will never walk again, she felt like she was dying, etc. Poor baby, everything is as well or better than expected. Her road to recovery will include emotional and spiritual recovery as well as injury and rehabilitation.
She has already run off 2 visitors, including poor Grandma, so call first.
She had an MRI this morning. It is normal. She has some slight swelling, but nothing unusual. We ran through the MRI images with the Neurologists. We could see white areas where they removed the gray matter. The white represents brain fluid filling the void. Really a very small area compared to the rest of the brain.
We will remain in the PICU throughout the weekend and Monday will either return to 7 west or to the Seashore House.
