It's 8:45pm and Kahlia has woken up twice. She can't speak because of the breathing tube going down her throat, but her eyes tell it all. She is in a lot of pain, and she even asked for a drink with her "sign". It was horrible to see the pain in her eyes...the nurse would then give her some medication, and she would immediately fall back asleep. Heart wrenching for sure, but they tell us that she is responding normally. Her heart rhythm has changed a couple of times which is normal for a post op patient, but not normal for what they want to see in the next couple of days. Pray that her heart stabilizes to a normal rhythm permanently so there will be no need for a pacemaker. God is good, my body is fatigued from the stress of the day, but very grateful one day is behind us.
Love you all! Praying for sweet Kahlia. God bless her with a speedy recovery, less pain, and no pace maker. God bless your sweet family with God's amazing comfort and perseverance.
