So, today we got all checked into the hospital- they let her play for about 2 hours, then went over all her medical history and medications. It took three of us to hold her down to get the IV in, only to find out an hour later we had to draw more blood from the other arm. After dinner they had me bathe her in a special antibacterial scrub, then gave her a strong laxative to clean her out. I braided her hair for the shave and the surgery. At about ten, they hooked her up to the IV fluid to keep her hydrated- as she cannot have anything else to eat or drink now- for who knows how long. They will come in and out all night- they will take us down tomorrow at 630 our time (530 texas time) to prep. for the OR. Then, we will all be praying for 8-9 hours as she will be in Gods hands, and the hands of the surgeons. I will post again, late tomorrow night. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS FOR HER TOMORROW!!!!
