Thanks Jen for giving me a few hours of solid sleep. I waited for the nurse shift change and went back to my room sometime after midnight, it took me a bit to unwind, but once I got to sleep I didn't stir until late morning.
I hustled to the Hospital to find Jamie in good spirits, I think the transfusion really helped give her a boost. I missed Goff's visit this AM, but caught her in hall long enough to give her a ration of cookies, apparently Katrina's PB recipe was particularly tempting.
Walking is a must today and I hope it will help Jamie get her guts in working order and alleviate some of the pain. She is far more alert, cheery and much more herself this morning, bossing me about and and taking a lot more ice chips. May is our daytime nurse again today hopefully yesterdays efforts will be rewarded with an easy day today, at least with this patient.
Thanks for the puzzle books and blanket Dana, both will get plenty of use in the coming weeks. And of course Katrina has done more than her share already and continues to help by taking our laundry. Dinner was also great last night guys, that was quite the buffet we had in my hotel room.

Hi Jamie and John!
Glad to hear the transfusion gave Jamie a boost. We here at the Mills compound think of you two and check the blog often. What an amazing thing-we have never blogged before. Anyway, all of us are pulling for a VERY speedy recovery for you. We slept out last night under the maple tree by the dog kennel, Mackenzie wanted to sleep in her treehouse. So she slept up there and we bunked on a mattress on the ground. Too funny! xoxo Lisa
