Operation Plus 1 Week

It's now been just over a week since Amy's operation and she's doing brilliantly. She's now sleeping through at night, although the big teenage sleep-ins seem to be on hold for a bit. I think she still wakes up in pain in first thing in the morning. Although this is easily ameliorated with paracetamol (or tramadol if the pain is bad), it seems to stop her getting back to sleep. The first two days she was out of hospital there was no holding her back and she was continually asking if she could go out for walks. However, she over-did it yesterday and spent a lot more time resting than she has of late - this is normal and the tiredness will continue, we're told, for a number of weeks yet. Her posture is increasingly good and she's walking with more ease as the days go by. Most of all, we've got out little girl back - her happy pre-op personality has now returned :-)
