This morning we met with Dr. Sutherland. He was pleased with Jennie's progress, and was happy to hear that things were going well. He took out the top 6 staples, in an effort to let the incision drain and avoid an infection.
Other than that, the trip over there wore Jennie out and she has slept much of the afternoon. On a positive note, she was able to eat a few grapes and a small amount of cheese, which is a step in the right direction. It didn't seem to bother her too badly, and hopefully she can begin eating more normally over the next week or so.
The plan is to leave here early in the morning. We will see if we make it in two days. It is almost a week earlier than we have left in the past, and I don't know if Jennie will be able to tolerate 7 or 8 hours of driving a day.
I will likely post tomorrow night after we stop, just to update on how far we made it. Thanks again for the prayers and support and we hope to see many of you soon!
