Out of ICU

Hi, it's Lisa writing again. Beth continues to improve and has been moved to a regular room at the hospital. I talked with her a moment ago and she sounded like herself. The surgeon said to her today, "You gave us quite a scare last night!" Who was scaring who? Beth said she is feeling wiped out by all the painful procedures, but at least now is able to take the Percoset. James, Mom, and Sue are keeping her company. Still hoping to get the chest drain out soon and be able to go home on Sunday. We love you, Beth!

Beth,

Glad you are out of ICU! All of us here in Connecticut are praying for you - also a couple of churches tomorrow. Hang in there. "Joy does come in the morning"

All our love, Patti and Burt

The Harlows are all thinking about you and send our prayers and positive thoughts. This blog is a great way to get the details of your progress out to family and friends. Thank you Lisa, Linda and Susan for updating it so regularly. Keep getting stronger, Beth. (And ignore my prior comment on the blog, as I hit "enter" out of turn. Oh well.)
