Today, Kyra lost a lot of things... such as tubes and IV lines. But she gained some things, too, including another unit of whole blood (her third), an intense dislike for respiratory therapy, and a purple butterfly body brace.
With the body brace on, we were able to get her out of bed for the first time since her surgery, and into her reclined wheelchair for an hour.
Kyra also kept a few things the same today, such as her passion for "Fiddler on the Roof", and her cool E.T. finger.
Peace.
Thank you for the updates. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. The girls and I check in on Kyra everyday...remember, slow and steady wins the race.

So glad things are going well. I love the ET finger. Very cool. Most post surgical patients hate their Resp. Therapy. Give her a hug for me! - gently! Prayers continue.
