Everybody's home

Delia is moving quite stiffly, but we're exchanging a lot of hugs. She has an ironclad excuse for not going to sparring class tomorrow. Hospital said that she'd probably be quite sore tomorrow, and we should wake her in the middle of the night to give her Tylenol.

She named her new teddy bear "Patches."

You've gotten some good advice in these comments. Let me add - my daughter was in a serious rollover accident about two years ago. Fortunately, she walked away, thanks to her seatbelt.

Aside from the soreness, what I noticed was that she would have flashbacks and some traumatic nightmare type stuff and it lasted a while. Several months and she will still occasionally have a bad dream about it. So if Delia has some bad dreams or flashes back to that moment of impact or whatever moment was the scariest, don't be surprised. Our doctor said it was really normal when Em was going through it.

I'm so glad Delia is okay.

Thanks for your input; I appreciate hearing about your daughter's experience (and glad she came through it; hurray for seatbelts). We will watch out for that for Delia.
