Update Day 15: Getting Better

After a bit of a spell last night, they were able to take Maggie of the dopamine (to maintain her blood pressure) altogether. Her respiration levels and bp have been within the norms since midnight which is a good sign. This is what the nurses expected to happen since it had been about 36 hours since the surgery and recovery time is between 24 and 48 hours. They did give another blood transfusion which they think contributed to her blood pressure coming back in line. We hope this trend continues and that we'll be moving back to St E's any day now.
