Peace out PICU!

We are so excited to have been released from the PICU. Henley is actually OUT OF THE HOSPITAL. We are kinda shocked, but she is doing remarkably well and although she is still on some pretty major drugs, we are able to manage the pain without IV meds. We have moved her back to our little hotel across the street from the hospital and are planning to have a peaceful and uneventful recovery for her here over the next week. Our main concern is keeping germs off of the back of her head so we are doing a lot to keep hands clean and use the topical medications we have on her incision site. We also have to work with her on moving her neck and head because her neck is very stiff after the surgery. We are encouraging her to look SLOWLY from side to side frequently. Henley has a follow up appointment with Dr. Greenfield at the end of this next week and then we should be released to come home over the weekend. 

New York is expecting a Blizzard on Tuesday & Wednesday so we are excited to see this place covered in snow! 

We have changed out plans a little bit and decided to stay put in this one hotel until we come home. So our address for the rest of our time here is: The Helmsley Medical Tower 1320 York Ave # L, New York, NY 10021
