Tehilla is in a considerable amount of pain. The achemol (tylenol ) does nothing for her and as soon as the Optalgin wears off she starts to cough a little cough and you can see how severely it hurts her.
So, we're dropping the achemol and adding Nurofen (Ibuprofen). It's not usually given to heart kids on Aspirin, but our cardiologist gave the okay.
They will alternate the two medications to make sure she is never without something.
Please pray that her pain be relieved and subside quickly.
Our nurse believes that her surgery's success was a miracle. I believe that too. We need more prayers so that she continues to recover nicely. That is clearly what has made all the difference.
Praying the new meds and lots of love take care of the pain. Feel good, Tehilla!
