OT: Update on Hannah
Hannah is out of ICU - I am cut and pasting the e-mail I just received from Janet (her mom)
(Please keep those prayers coming for her)
Hannah has been moved back down to her old room. She is sleeping good although running a slight temp. We are just watching it and seeing if it is heading up or down. I gave her a stern lecture yesterday that just because mom likes to watch scary things on TV that doesn't mean that mom likes scary things in real life and that she doesn't have to feel like she has to provide that sort of thing.
The floor is quiet today, many empty rooms. We are waiting on the approval from the state on the nursing care but I expect that even after we get the approval it will take a day or so to get it in place. So we'll just sit and wait. We did get her TennCare Select letter in the mail today but I've already requested the change to TennCare PHP so we'll get a letter on that too. Hopefully it will be approved.
When we walked into her old room this morning to drop off our things before we went upstairs to get her there was a big Winnie the Pooh staring back at us. He is nice and soft and is laying on his belly with his chin propped in his hands. So cute. Evidently biker Santa had been by (surrounded by a gaggle of leather clad, chain wearing, booted bikers) and the nurses had picked out Pooh for Hannah. I'd have loved a picture of that!  And the little white board they write the nurses/PCA names on also says "Welcome Back, Hannah!" on it. She has some friends here.
Thank you all for your good thoughts and prayers. We appreciate them more than you know.
