Allie continues to be in pain when she sits up or walks. She still does not have normal bowel sounds so still nothing by mouth.  Nothing by mouth since Wednesday. She sleeps most of the time, so she doesn't ask for anything which is such a blessing.  She walks the halls, reluctantly, and even walked to the playroom and back.  Walking is great for her, but it is intensly painful. As soon as she has bowel sounds and can hold down regular food we can leave this place.  It sound like that could take a couple more days.  They removed her dressings that were taped and stapled to her head today.  Her sutures or in a T shape but they look really good.  She is in much better spirits than yesterday and my prayers are that she would look and feel better and better with each passing day.
