I know she’ll eat for daddy! Sure hope she starts to improve very soon.
Cathy got a surgical feeding tube. The doctor gave me a geniune assessment, because he felt I could handle it. He told me she’s likely to recover, she made it through the surgery and the sedation. He warned me he was giving me an honest assessment so don’t hold it against him if he’s wrong. I agreed. I asked why I had gotten such pessimistic assessments and he said ‘thats what I train them to do. But I feel you can handle the truth, and won’t flip out on me if something bad DOES happen.’
I’m grateful for the honesty, and grateful she might be okay in the long haul. These have been the most hellish 48 hours I have experienced in a while; glad they are coming to a close.
