Mike is visiting with her this morning. She's had an EKG to check out why her pulse is racing occasionally. She had a good night and is in good spirits this morning. French toast for breakfast. Mike's parents came to visit.
1:00 pm
She's been awake most of the day with a short nap before Mom and Caitlin arrived. Dr. L (cardiologist) came to visit Meghan to discuss her heart arrhythmia during the night. They are going to do an echo/ultrasound of her heart just to rule out any issues but they think it's just a normal reaction to the stress, trauma and surgeries. She's now able to move her left leg so we're working on easing her into repositioning herself by using her left foot. Her arm is hurting - she feels like something is poking the outside of her arm and we think it's the incision from where they fixed that bone on the outside of her arm.
3:00pm
Physical Therapist visited and gave Meghan new exercises for her left leg. She can't let her heart rate get above 120 so she has to take breaks to let it drop back down. She really enjoyed her visits from Jena and Sarah.

The day got the most of her and Meghan took a good nap after visiting with Lauren and Dr. K.
9:00 pm
Mike and Mom went back to visit Meghan at the 8:30 visitation. We did her physical therapy for her left leg and fingers. She also did her respiratory therapy. She had grilled cheese for dinner. She has to drink what she describes as a really nasty kool aid drink twice a day. We brought her laptop and she's on line for the first time in a week.

Ohh... french toast! Yum! You know, I'll have to teach you how to make crepes at one point. I make awesome crepes!
I watched Merlin last night (yes, I felt a bit guilty for watching without you, but I'll watch it again with you when you're better), but omg, Artur KILLED a unicorn! :O
Your text the other day, really made me happy. I saw it, and couldn't help but smile. I probably looked pretty goofy-looking, but too bad. I miss you lots, and I'm really happy that you're getting better. ICU sucks, I remember that all too well, but you're doing awesome (and you're welcome for the flowers... it was our pleasure)
<3333,
Chris
P.S. Big thanks to Meg's mom and Caitlin for updating this blog so often.
Oye, Meg. No dreaming about Tennant >:| ('Cause, you know, thats totally whats making your pulse race. <3)

Hey Meg! Just got back home last night, so this is the first time I've been able to get to the computer to leave a message. Don't know if you've gotten my previous texts to your phone, but please know we've been thinking about you and praying for a quick recovery. We'll be checking the blog regularly for updates on how well you're doing and to see when we can come visit. In the meantime keep positive and know we are all here for you! Alison sends her love too!!
Hey Meghan!!! I just got this message yesterday as we were walking out the door for the night...Just got home with the family and we all have been thinking of you and praying for a quick recovery...Brooks is home now and is also very concerned and wants you to know that she has you in her prayers as well!!! What a way to get out of having to take finals! Don't worry about that...they won't go anywhere!! We need for you to get better quickly and return to the courts and return as Kendall's math tutor...she is 1 point away from a B now...THANKS TO YOU!!!!! Just think about getting well...we all love you....We will be following the blog daily watching your progress!!! Tracy and Family
Hey Meg!
Glad you had a good night. So sorry to hear about your accident, I hope they're looking after you okay and that your recovery is a speedy one.
lol. Oh man Lissa cracks me up. I'd have to agree with her though, as The Doctor tends to make my pulse race too. But who knows, maybe his Sonic Screwdriver can help fix you up!
I hope you like french toast. Everyone is posting comments about how good that must be, but if they brought it to me, I'd throw it back at them with a demand for pancakes. Or waffles.
It was great to get to talk to you for 5 minutes the other day. I hope you're feeling better
<333
lol I have to agree with Alex about the pancakes and waffles thing. Waffles would be much better than french toast! But then again, waffles are just awesome *g*
I'm really glad to hear you're doing good. I miss you tons!

p.s. Chris hid from Lissa and I last night. It was so mean lol
(it was so mean. Totoro|LAYFHaHaHa was the nick she was on. I teared up a lot! So sad :( But we got a mari video out of it. See my glorious facebook for details >_>;;)
A racing pulse isn't so bad, just try not to worry about Tennant. Let them fight it out for him on irc for a while and then when you get back you will only have to take him from one person instead of many.
Hopefully your ears aren't burning too. We are all hoping that you get better soon and are back to all your old fun things quickly.
Meg,
How adorable are you! Aww, floral print dress. Sorry, first thing I noticed.
I actually really want French toast right now. Hurry up and get better so I can give you Coupling (the good quality eps!) I promise you'll laugh.
Totally agree with Arde about the Tennant thing. -whistles-
Many hugs!
Faye
Meg, I've been thinking of you and watching the blog to see your status. I hope everything comes out all right and I know you get our of there soon!
Just know that I'm thinking of you!
Morning Meg!
Checking in before I head to work this morning! I'll try to check on you from school, but I doubt I can, they probably have it blocked (along with everything else useful..so much for school!) Anyway! Hope you're feeling a bit better and had a good night. Love you so much! Did you get the balloons from Nannie & Papaw?
