Day 1 after skin graft surgery. Can you believe that was surgical procedure #9? Cedie is such an amazing fighter of a girl! She was happy today. She didn't need much pain medication. They won't change her dressing on her arm until Monday (gives the transplanted skin time to attach).

The drs noticed that she looked a little puffy so they had her re-weighed. Yesterday she weighed 6.82(15.04 lbs). Today she weighed 6.98(15.4 lbs). They decided to give her a one-time dose of lasics. This is on top of the regular dieretic that they have her on. The extra fluid most likely came from the IV fluids she got before/during/after her graft.
