A sleepy day!!

Today was a sleepy day for Libbey which is not unusual for her after surgery. We are always nervous about this since looking back over the years and surgeries, 'waking up' has always been an issue. This morning she did whisper to me that she was scared to fall asleep....afraid that she wouldn't wake up....like in NYC, so I know it is also on her mind as well. She did communicate with us this morning and that was a nice surprise!! After we had been there awhile she did fall asleep so was so glad that she was able to do that, but the funny thing is....that girl has great ears....she told us numerous things that had been said while she was 'sleeping'....her eyes can't stay open, but her ears....never sleep....so funny!! I did get her to sip a little bit of water, but other than that...nothing else has 'gone down the hatch'....which also is not a surprise to me at all.

The spring like weather is also gone too.....we had snow, cold and wind today with more expected to come...well, it was nice while it lasted, but hey, this is Cleveland....it is supposed to be....cold, windy and snowy. Each day it is hard to leave the hospital.....I hate leaving her there...alone, but know she likes a bit of 'alone' time which I understand, but there is just something about seeing her in that strange bed, in that strange room, in a new hospital, in a different city....hmmm, kinda makes me sound like a.....mom, doesn't it?
