Heather is doing significantly better this morning. She is as alert and clear thinking as she has been in weeks, and she seems much stronger. Her delusional thinking seems to have cleared, which is a huge blessing to me. It is bad enough to see her have to go through all of this stuff, but it is exponentially more difficult when she is feeling persecuted and distrusting. She seemed to have a good night, and said that she was able to get some good sleep (which she hasn't been able to do for some time). Her pain seems well controlled, and her vital signs all seem good.
Her doctor came in this morning and said that he will change the dressings on her legs later on today. He will take her back into surgery tomorrow to clean out the wounds in her legs and to make sure they got all of the dead tissue out. He said that they will dress her wounds with cadaver skin after her surgery tomorrow. He said that he was impressed with how good she looks today. It probably really helped her to get all that dead tissue out of her body.
It is wonderful to see her beautiful smile and to have her communicating relatively normally with us again. Thank you all for your caring, prayers, and support.
