[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 28871, member: 1991"] Update - good news! Home in the morning. We got there just as the surgeon was doing his rounds. He checked her out, noted that it's taken longer for her to get over the anaesthetic and that she is starting to eat again with no more problems. She still feels nauseous if she's sitting up or standing for more than a few minutes. I don't know HOW she's going to manage, sleeping on a futon on the floor. Still eating like a bird, though. I brought some grapes in for her, as well as her favourite shampoo so I'm hoping she will shower tonight or in the morning before she checks out. I'm hoping she handles the long car trip without getting sick. I'm taking mother in law in with me, plus difficult child 3. He has to interview her for part of an assessment task, so I'm getting him to do it as we're driving into the city and back. he can type it up on his Alphasmart when we stop at the lights. The bats tonight - I realised I'm not in the city often, at this time of night. At least, not that part of the city. We left just after dusk and we could see them swooping into the Moreton Bay fig trees that are planted all through inner city parks. I do wonder how many people recognise them as bats - they're about the size of magpies when they fly. Maybe slightly larger. Silhouetted against an evening sky you have to see them close to be sure. I fed a baby one, once - the babies drink from a special bottle, but when they're older they LOVE banana. Jen, the Boston marathon sounds like a great way to burn off that extra ADHD energy. Sharon, those gourmet treats sound nice. I love the chance to shop around and spoil people that way. Congrats to easy child for her first solo drive. Oceans, I'm glad things are still going well. Good on difficult child for that score! Marg [/QUOTE]
