Barbara (Circe) is out of ICU

Barbara was moved from the makeshift overflow ICU at Grossmont
Hospital (it's really their surgical recovery room) to a regular
hospital room after midnight last night. She is disconnected from all
the tubes, IVs, etc. and is able to be up and around. I came home
after she was settled in, about 1:30 a.m.

We aren't sure how much longer she will be in the hospital. I may
take my laptop computer in today and see if we can hook it up so that
she can get into the Internet and see all your good wishes.

Michael will take the kids up to see her this morning. She has a
breast pump to keep the pressure off and the supply going. I don't
know if there are any restrictions on her nursing due to any drugs
they are giving her, but if not, I'm sure Vernon will be right back at
it!

Thank you for the updates. Please tell Barbara she has been in my
thoughts for a speedy and full recovery.

Wonderful to hear that she's making such a rapid recovery!
I've certainly been worried about her...

I'm so glad she's going to be OK! I just got back from vacation with
no usenet access to find this out!!! Barbara, when you get back onto
the net... I'm glad you're better! And you aren't allowed to let
anything happen to you! I need your voice of reason to help me think
through my crazier arguments! And of course your kiddos and family
need you even more!

Katie,

Thanks for all the updates on Barbara. I'm glad to hear that she is
doing better and is able to manage pumping, etc.

Barbara,

What a scare! I'm sure you will be happy to be out of the hospital
soon and at home with your family, where undoubtedly you will be more
comfortable.

Get Well Soon!
