Well, she had her dressing change,
and the new grafts look fine at this point.

Her bps were a little wild yesterday, though, and she kept spiking fevers,
so the current plan is to put her back on the antibiotics they recently removed.

It's the same cycle: baby steps forward, and baby steps back.

The pain management team is continuing to tweak things as well,
as they want to lessen her sedation while keeping her comfortable -
it's a difficult balancing act. They haven't had rounds yet,
so I'll post again later if there is more news.

Oh, and on behalf of Sam, Happy Father's Day to all the dads,
especially her own,
as well as Grandpa Hutchins and Uncles Jay, John, Jerry and Jeff.

Thanks,
Jessica
