Ava Update...

So Ava had a rough night which was to be expected. The pain from intestinal surgery was explained to us by the surgeon as being very intense. They are trying to keep it under control with an epidural and morphine among other things but she is waking up from time to time very upset. She doesn't like the tubes and does her best to tear those out when we aren't on our game. Luckily her nurse was assigned to just her and sat right next to her all night so I did manage to get a few hours of sleep. We will probably be in here for 5-7 days depending on how well her recovery goes. Aaron and I are going to switch on and off staying with her as life with four boys at home goes on.
