Well. it took round the clock nursing in shifts at the hospital and here from Friday morning to late this morning, but Warp now has back her own normal sleep-scent (bakery), is eating a lot without hiding it, is going to the bathroom normally, has her bruise way, way down so that almost all of it is just around the sides of the incision, and she's just happy as can be. You should see her now. Despite her complications and her apparent autoimmune problem she's begun doing marvelously -- just took a bit of extra work with nursing in shifts and about a thousand bucks. She's worth it; no one who has ever kissed her or smelled her bakery-belly could ever doubt that. Still hoping for good pathology results and that the autimmune disorder doesn't worsen at all, but she's lived with that for a while, so... We are happy. Warp had such a rough first six months; she more than deserves not being someone's throw-away. She's a treasure. [Posted in FML issue 3038]
