Just got back from seeing Heidi. She was moved into the ICU about 10:30 last night when a bed finally opened up. When I went in to see her today the first thing they said was that she is all clear to move to a regular room but again there are no beds. That however is not such a bad thing as in the ICU she has a huge private room, a one on one nurse, and since she's doing so good they are OK with visitors etc.... Once she moves to a regular room she is just another patient...
As for her, she is doing well. She's awake alert and just really dizzy She's had breakfast and lunch and the food isn't all that bad. As soon as she wants to she is OK to get up and walk a bit (with help of course). For being less than 24 hrs from this...she's doing well.
As for long term she said she has noticed her left ear is quiter so she's probably lost some hearing. He facial nerve appears to be working correctly but her face still feels numb and swollen so that is the biggest prayer request at this point because she said its really annoying.

I'm so glad to hear how well she's doing! Continuing to pray and think of you guys.
Heidi's eating ability after 8 hours of anesthesia is astounding in itself, but we are praising God for the rest of the "astounding" as well!!
So glad to hear things are progressing as they should. Interesting that Heidi got to skip out on the turban. The left side of my face was VERY, VERY numb too at first (like I was getting a cavity filled) and it is now 8 months later only very slightly numb. I'm praying for the same results for Heidi. Paige
