Update. She just got out of surgery, was supposed to last an hour,

surgeon said she'll be in a lot of pain. a LOT. She was crying in the
recovery room because of pain. The doctor says if this doesn't work

Oh man, that sucks...

Just stopped by, she's with mom, still crying it hurts so bad. It must
be awful, because she's a tough nut. She was supposed to get out after
a couple of hours, but because it just didn't go the way it semmed it
might, she will stay the night so they can give her IV drugs.
According to the surgeon, she did the right arm good, tearing
cartilage, muscle and all.

Ouch, sorry to hear about it, it made me cringe to think about having to
watch a child go through that.- Hide quoted text -

Thanks. And just when her spirits were up, things were looking good,
and now this. It's a big setback, like her right arm is back worse
than ever now!

Our getwell wishes are with you and your
yours.

Just got back, she's staying the night because of pain, they can
manage it better there. I asked the surgeon about the pain, and he
said that there was a lot of surgery for an arm done. He didn't
realize before of the muscular and cartilage damage done. He said that
he's done similar to grown men and women and she is taking it better
than a lot of them. She's a tough nut! I watched her when she was on
morphine and still hurting so bad tears were running down her cheeks.
Bad day for dad, too!!!!!!
