She is awake !!

Karen is starting to be more coherent now and is starting to drink water.
It will be a while before she eats a steak dinner but we will take it a little at a time.
As mentioned earlier everything went good with the surgery but Karen is in a good bit of pain right now.
She has the morphine dispenser with the push button and it seems to manage it OK.

I will be staying with her overnight in the room here.
