3:10 pm Central Time --
Katie is all settled in in her room (well, we have been for quite some time). It is a private room, but the smallest hospital room I've been in. We've been joking that it must be intended to keep the overweight relatives away. We've already dodged one call from her grandmother (and by dodged, I mean we hung up the phone). The hospital is taking care of that (and by taking care of that, I mean they will be able to neither confirm nor deny to anyone that she is here at the hospital).
Currently, Katie is awaiting the start of pain medication, which they promise is on the way. It sounds as if she'll probably have to stick to ice chips for the rest of the night, and tomorrow might get the clear liquids. At least she doesn't seem hungry like she did this morning.
**Update: 3:38 pm -- They just brought the Dilauded in, and within a few seconds, Katie could feel the difference.**
Polly and Maggie have both called and Katie managed to talk with Maggie briefly. Polly is going to come by and visit later this afternoon/evening.
If you're ever visiting the hospital, I recommend the "California" sub sandwich.

Sarah,
Thanks again for the updates. I am thinking of your mom and sister all day. When Paula is awake, please tell her Cheryl sends her best.

Hi Sweeties! It was nice to talk with you for a bit, Sarah, and hear Katie in the background. We are so very, very glad that Katie and Paula..and you, too, Sarah...came out of surgery well. You three will remain in our thoughts, prayers and hearts. When the two who are yet to be "with it", please tell them we love them very much...you too, of course. Fia, Micaela and Corinne [We3]
Dear Paula and Katie,
I am so happy to see you walk and looking cheerful!
I wish you to feel better soon,
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
Warmly,
Tatiana Chernih~
