Just had an email from Rie:

"Mom came home last Tues. She's not having anymore pain and not taking any pain meds. Her mind is still fuzzy from the meds, at least I hope that's what caused it. I'm hoping when I take her back to the surgeon, he can give us some insight on how long this fuzziness will last.
She's tired all the time, but hardly eats anything. My aunt and I are constantly trying to get her to eat and sometimes she will, but it's only a couple bites and that's about it. We constantly tell her she needs to eat to get her strength back."

Rie herself is very worn out - her doc referred her for some tests.

I asked Rie if her mom is on the computer. Hopefully if she is less "fuzzy" she will eat. I am glad she has no pain - but she's gotta eat!
