Journal entry by Roger Rogers —
Update 6/25:
Today has been a difficult day. Mom has struggled with nausea all day. Yesterday she was feeling bad and she walked 3 laps, today she felt worse and she walked 5 laps. So she is pushing herself as much as she can.
Even with such a rough day she has still found time to video chatted with E since it’s his birthday. He has been so happy seeing her.
The PA that came in today explained that this is one of the hardest surgeries to recover from. It take longer than most as far as recovery time. Her mentor explained that it takes at least 8 weeks to become pain free.
🙏🏼Thank you for keeping her in your thoughts and prayers.🙏🏼
🙏🏼🙏🏼If you could please continue to pray for her nausea to be brought under control and the pain levels to remain under control, for strength, rest and healing and courage on this long recovery ahead.🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sorry i don’t get updates out sooner, I wait until dad leaves to get all the info together so they can just focus on mom and her healing while he is with her. He is getting to the hospital by 12:30 and stays until 9. As long as they allow primary care visitors he will be there. 🙏🏼Also if you could keep my dad in your prayers, that he takes care of himself and rests when he can. 🙏🏼
Eli and I have returned back home earlier this week.
