Hello! Thank you for comng back and reading more about Amelia. This has been an eventful week. It has been now 5 days since we brought Amelia home and she is rcovering. She is still hurting and the medicines that they keep playing with are not allowing her to feel great, but she is out and at least active enough to be going up and down the stairs and riding in the van.
She is still super immunocompromised, so any visits will still have to be over the interwebs, and that will last for another 3 weeks or so. We have to take her to clinic 2 times a week, for those next 3 weeks just to keep track of her.
We have been staying home for the most part except for some trips out looking for houses. Timing came up and we are going to be moving to a bigger place that will allow Amelia some more space to heal and move forward. We have been starting to pack boxes and get things into storage, and Amelia feels bad about not being able to help as much as she wants to. She really wants to help, but she is still under a lifting restriction from the surgery. She can’t even lift the cats! It’s a good thing that they like to jump on her and get petted.
So things here are chaotic, but not bad. Amelia is doing her best to heal and get back into the swing of things. She has been puzzling with Brenda like crazy, and it won’t be long before she has every puzzle in our house done! She did 6 puzzles in the hospital during that week!
We are all thankful for her recovery and how well she is doing. We know that all of your prayers have helped, and that the hand of the Lord is guiding her. Thank you yet again to all of you.
More will come as we know it.
Still coming to you live, 12 days into the new kidney,
-Justin
