Day Two... Whoo!

Great news! Kim has been moved from ICU to the Neurosciences Inpatient Care unit. No IV. No tubes coming out of her head. She's been sporting a stylish head wrap since surgery yesterday, and Kim rocks the turbin look like no other. As her sister Becky put it, she looks like she's on a soap opera playing a neurosurgery patient -- perfect skin color, perfect-looking wrap. No REAL neurosurgery patient should look this good. I would post a photo, but I have not yet been through the proper approval process. Kim is eating solid foods: half a turkey wrap, broccoli... That's about it. She eschewed some sloppy-joe-looking sandwich, a sad-looking salad and other random hospital food for the frozen yogurt and fresh fruit her brother and sister brought up from the food court. Regarding the tumor, we won't have the pathology report for a week or so -- therefore, we're still under the impression that it's a grade two glioma. Stay tuned -- I'll keep you posted as things develop. She'll likely leave the hospital on Thursday -- maybe even as early as tomorrow. Amazing, huh?
