Better today

Polly is doing better today. She was awake and alert most of the day even asking to eat; managed a few bites of cheerios and later for lunch peanut butter and jelly and juice.

The side of her head with the incision is beginning to swell. The doctor told us this well happen and it could even swell to the point where her eye will be closed. We'll see.

Tomorrow she should be out of intensive care and into a typical recovery room.

She's enjoying her TV shows and we read lots of books today. Polly is such a great kid...she is handling all of this like a champ.

Thanks for your prayers!
