Six Days Post Op

This is Jill....writing for Shelly.
She is learning her way around a blog and will be posting as soon as she is capable and has the time.
She wants you all to know that she is so thankful for her friends, family, and folks she's never met.
You guys have made the entire experience with Lilly more bearable.
Your thoughts, notes, prayers, and donations have been such a blessing for their entire family.
So, thank you.

Lilly is doing very well.
She is turning her head a little more each day.
She is 3. Full of energy.
So, she wants to go, go, go....but she does have limitations.
She can not understand all of that and it makes her a little angry sometimes!
She wants to run, climb and jump!
One of her fave activities right now is riding around in her pink car. Mommy put a big, pink, fluffy pillow in behind her head so that she is safe & cozy.

She is walking on her own and has started eating a little more.
She is still a little wobbly at times, but has greatly improved.

Her pain is still being managed with Tylenol.
She has to take a dose every four hours....and Shelly says she can tell by Lilly's behavior when it is time to give the next dose. Pain stinks....especially when it is in the neck and you are 3 years old.

Lilly goes in for a follow up with her surgeon next Tuesday.
Until then, she has orders to lay low for 2 weeks ... and stay at home.

SO, that is the update for now!!!
More to follow!!!
