Even though Sue's overall condition has improved, the headaches remain - "normal" headaches, not migraines. The staff is telling us that this is the normal healing process and we just have to get through this stage, so Sue is on a painkiller called Norco, which they tell us is Vicodin without all the Tylenol in it. She is also having trouble keeping food down right now - not entirely sure why that is. That would be my biggest prayer request for her today - that she could keep some food down.
For all those reasons, we are restricting visitors and phone calls right now to family and our pastors. That will keep Sue's stress levels down and allow her to rest and recover, which is our primary focus right now.
The kids have been at my brother's house this week, and Aunt Ty and the cousins have been running them ragged! I'm picking them up today so they can get ready for their camps next week. Alison will be at the Student Statesmanship Institute in Lansing, and Lauren will be at Grace Adventures camp near Silver Lake. I must admit to some trepidation on their behalf, especially Lauren, who will be so far away. Pray that God's peace will be with her - I'm sure in that environment it will be. Alison will only be 10 minutes away, and will have many friends around her, so I'm not so concerned about her.
