Thanks everyone!

She is doing so-so. Hurting quite a bit. But now she seems to have picked up a flu bug or something, and has diahrrea, and a low grade temp. Dr told her she has to stay in the hospital until at leat Tuesday as she is weak and having trouble getting up out of bed by herself..

I think it annoyed her...the doctor told her "you are not like your mother, she is very strong, you are much weaker." lol. Poor kid. I am glad he is keepig her there longer with this fever brewing. He checked all incision areas and does not see any indication of infection, but they will watch her. They too think she has a flu bug. NOT pleasant i am sure on top of trying to recover from this surgery.

She is tickled to have the Panni gone, and she said she is much smaller, so thats great! Now I just hope she will kick this yuck and quit worrying her mother.
