Stabilized

Today... Much better. Heather was most understandably exhausted after all she went through yesterday. She managed to sleep pretty well last night and has been dozing in and out today. 

She ended up getting quite a bit of IV fluids during the events of yesterday, which led to a fair amount of fluid leaking into her "3rd space." So a lot of extra swelling today.  Just more fluid to get rid of before we come back. 

So, looks like we may be able to head home tomorrow, however everyone that has come to talk to us today has been suggesting that we are most likely not leaving until Monday.  

Heather continues to recover, she has little memory of what went on yesterday, but does remember both the adenosine and getting shocked. She said she doesn't really want to experience either of them anytime in the near future :)

Well, here's to an ICU super bowl party. Not sure if they will let me bring the keg up...

  2. I'm figurately pouring a keg of gatorade on your head, Kelly. And Heather's riding the shoulder float. :)
