Post Op - Day 4

Another day of recovery and things are still going well. 

Rachel slept a little bit better last night, going back and forth from the recliner we moved into her room, to her bed. Swelling is still there, nothing too impressive. No bruising. 

We are managing her pain with just over the counter Advil and Tylenol. We have just a few more doses of the pain narcotic left that I am saving for when things are really hurting. But she only every says her pain is at a 3-4-5 on a scale of 10. We learned when she was little, that she has a VERY high tolerance for pain. And it's proving to be that way still. 

I took this picture this evening out in the sunlight. Rachel tries to avoid the sunlight right now to avoid any possibility in sneezing!! 

We've spent today lounging about watching movies and just relaxing, and in between Rachel's been trying to write an essay that's due tomorrow night (she's in summer online courses).
