Another Update On Lilly

I took Lilly to her ER follow-up appointment today. She had her catheter removed and the doctor ( the gynecologist that did her surgery ) rechecked the area she did surgery on. Everything is healing fine. When we went into the office Lilly could hardly move her legs. I have been trying to get her to bend her legs and not hold her legs so tight together since she came home from the hospital but just could not convince her to do it. After her catheter was taken out she was a new girl. She could suddenly walk better and she could spread her legs apart and bend her knees. I have a feeling she thought the catheter would fall out if she seperated her legs even an inch. The swelling is gone and she hasn't had any pain medication since yesterday afternoon. We went to visit my sister Robin and her kids today and Lilly, Vivian and Sam played with Reese for awhile. Then at Mom and Dad's, Lilly was jumping on the trampoline. She did complain of her knees and legs hurting some. She took motrin before bed but that's it. She was sleeping with me since her surgery and Vivian was sleeping with Sam. Adam has been sleeping in Lilly and Vivian's bed. Tonight everyone is finally in their own beds. We took Lilly to her class earlier today to visit and all the kids were so excited to see her. They were all saying how it was an answer to prayer that she was there. It was really sweet. Lilly was really quiet and acting all shy. Lilly, can you believe it? She's going back to school tomorrow. I can't help but worry she's going to overdo it. She still gets tired really easy. I told her teacher that she can come home during the day if she is tired for the next few days. We had to go buy her a pillow for her seat at school because her bottom is still bruised and sore. She picked out a princess pillow, one of those bead filled ones. I talked to a couple of teachers and we've been trying to keep the area where Lilly got hurt a secret from the other kids, so one of them suggested that she tell them she hurt her upper leg. We told Lilly to do this, so she wouldn't be embarrassed and that we thought God would be o.k. with it. I am so glad that things are going better for her. She has healed so well and so far it seems as if emotionally she's going to be o.k. too. Thank you so much for your prayers.
