Hospital Update...

I am happy to report that Summer has been taken off her ventilator and is breathing well on her own. She has also been moved out of Intensive care and onto a Surgical recovery ward.

She is still currently on morphine for the pain relief and so is a bit drowsy but she definitely looks more like herself again. No smiles yet but here's hoping!

I tried to feed her this morning but at the moment she is not taking any milk . The doctors said that her bowel was quite bruised during the operation so may take a few days to start working again.

Hopefully she is on the road to recovery now.

Matt and I would like to thank everyone so much for all the kind words of support which really helped us during this difficult and upsetting time.

Really glad to hear that Summer is making good progress and we're sure she'd be giving out some of her lovely smiles again soon. Best wishes,
