Clearheaded update

Okay I finally got an hour of sleep this afternoon and it made me feel like I received a full nights rest and I am thinking clearing now. A little more detailed update on Autumn is that the surgery went fine but it was not like a regular spina bifida surgery. Instead of the nerves kind of sticking out of the spine they were more flattened and yellow which does not mean anything to me since I am not sure what color the nerves are suppose to be. Also there was not much skin to stitch her up with so they made "dog ears" of skin at each end of the closure in case they need to go back and do more to her spine and there will be some skin already stretched to cover it. The pictures are already posted of the hole and the closure from after the surgery--looks pretty painful to me and the hole was pretty wide. Her blood pressure was going down after surgery so they were going to take her off the pain meds to check it again and then see if it changes and then fix her pain meds accordingly. I really hope I am relaying the information correctly because the info goes from the doctors to James and then to me and without much sleep I hope I am understanding everything correctly. :) I will have to post later about how I am doing but I am getting groggy again and need to pump one more time before I go to bed.
