So Abby is improving with each day. She is more with it and out of pain for the most part. She still has a little discomfort but hasn't had to take very many pain pills. They started her on the thyroid hormone which seems to be helping a little. She is still very swollen but they gave her a diuretic to help with that and she is getting more off so that is good.
The mass in her abdomen is an ongoing issue, they are afraid of infection but there is not much they can do about it right now. It is just dead tissue from her pancreas enzymes digesting things in her abdominal cavity. So at some point they may have to go in and take it out. They are going to remove the stint from her pancreas today or tomorrow and watch to make sure it isn't leaking. If it isn't then they will remove the drains. So things are looking up but she is still needing to be watched closely. She is a strong girl and she is a fighter. We hope she still has some fight in her. I think the worst is over and pray that it will be an easier rode from here on out.
Thanks for all the prayers on her behalf, and keep them coming!
