Holly still had nausea today, I called the doctor and spoke to his PA. She said that sometimes they have patients complain of the worse nausea they have ever had after surgery, the kind of nausea that makes one cracker in your mouth seem to grow to ten and you cant swallow it then. She said it is definately due to the combo of narcotics she has had and everyone reacts differently, it has nothing to do with the brain and the surgery. I requested a different anti nausea medicine and she said we would have to see a local doc to get a script because she wanted her to be checked out. Actually, she wanted to free herself from liability but no problem we understand. Our family physician gave Holly a new medicine and it helped almost instantly. She has eaten soup and rice pudding for dinner and has been up for a couple of hours and just gone back to bed. I think she slept for well over 24 of 36 hours since we have arrived at home. Today I took her brother Freeman to the airport then picked up sister in law Sandy from Alaska. She is going to be here for two weeks to help with Holly and the kids. What a blessing.

I'm so grateful for this blog as I can check on things while I'm traveling and working since I have the time zone difference and haven't been able to reach Ann by phone.

It sounds like things are progressing really, really well. I'm so happy.

Lots of love and hugs to you all,
Mindi
