Just another day

Today was more of a challenge, again. It looks like it might be Friday before the chest tubes come out. Alison had increasing pain in her back, so some adjustments in treatment were made, and she'll be keeping the epidural to treat her pain.

While she's had a pretty good appetite, she needs to consume more protein to increase the effectiveness of some of her medications. Who knew eating could be such work?

Here's a quick fact for the day: Did you know Alison is only the 77th person to receive a lung transplant at University Hospitals & Clinics? A total of 13 lung transplants were done at UIHC in 2010.
