from icu to general ward

today is a big day for bobbies as she will be moved from icu to 3 west ( they call that their general ward ) where she will be hopefully in her own room with bathroom and a sleeper couch for mom as sitting on the chair next to her bed in icu during the night is a killer. they have just removed her arterial line and the iv from her neck also came out yesterday. one chest tube will be removed by the surgeon later and the other one still has to stay in which makes moving around difficult. she is very quiet and subdued and does not sleep much, hopefully she will be able to rest better in the next room without beeping monitors. the hospital has started a beads chain for her and every milestone she achieves earns her a bead, always in different colours.
