Sam's dressing change went fine;
she was back in her room by 8:00 am --
it was an early morning for the plastic surgery team.
He plans on another dressing change Monday or Tuesday.

He said @85% of the grafting has "taken";
he knew he'd have a little to redo, and
then some small spots to take care of.
Her right hand has fared better than her left,
and the surgeon feels she will have a functional right hand;
she lost some fingers on the left, though.

All in all, from a plastics standpoint, things are looking okay.
Her vitals remain stable, and she is resting comfortably right now.

Thanks,

Jessica
