Steady as she goes...

Muriel has been resting comfortably today and tonight. She has a fair amount of congestion in her lungs that she needs to cough up, but she has pain when she coughs from her incision so she does not enjoy coughing. Hopefully she will get it out to avoid suction, which I know she will hate. Her sodium is at 128 and needs to go up. Jeff fed her a few bites of mashed potato with sodium supplement on top. I think that went down better than salty applesauce. Duh, huh? She is on higher doses of heparin to thin her blood and avoid clotting until Coumadin can get started. All together a pretty good day.
