Br'er Liar speaks again

Okay, after all the bad news of the day I am pleased to report that when the second pain pill kicked in it got Lisa Marie's pain under control. Rather than laying there sweating as she dealt with the pain, she is now resting comfortably. This is a good thing as the first two gowns of the day were so soaked with sweat that she had to change out of them (and the linens were kind of unpleasant until I changed them). But she is sleeping right now. Hopefully after the next round of painkillers (in another 35 minutes or so) she might even go for a walk. At present the only activities of the day were a sponge bath she gave herself and a few trips to the bathroom.

Katy the Kind is due to show up in another half hour or so. Thus, this may be my last update of the day. Thanks to all for flowers, kind wishes, useful suggestions, prayers, and every other form of support shown to Lisa Marie the past two weeks.

I am glad that Lisa is finally able to rest. You get some rest too while she is sleeping.

So glad to hear that the pain is manageable at the moment. Hopefully it will last all night and some good rest will be had.
