Jo Jo's medicine tree

Jolianne had a very good night last night. No significant problems. I took this picture yesterday to show how many medicine lines she has. It is a little overwhelming, but the nurses know exactly where everything goes. I am so amazed by their compassion while taking care of Jo Jo. They are even keeping an eye out for me. I fell asleep on the couch yesterday and Jolianne's nurse went and got me a blanket and pillow and covered me up. We have met so many wonderful nurses, it really takes a special person to do this kind of work each day.
Hopefully they will be able to close the incision today. They want her to be at a certain fluid level before they can do it. She isn't quite there yet but it is possible that she will be by the time they get ready to do it. Our old roommate Brynn is having surgery this morning so please keep her in your prayers also. After they do Brynn's surgery they will do Jo Jo's closure.
I will let you know how everything went.
Love,
Crystal
