Thumbs up!

We all got a chance to see Julie this evening and she looks fantastic! She was responsive and smiling and squeezed our hands. She's got great colour and the nurses and doctors are really happy with how she's doing. She's staying overnight in the Post anaesthetic care unit and will be moving to the step down unit tomorrow.

She needs to get a lot of rest over the next little bit so we'll keep you posted when she's ready for visitors.

Here's a picture of Julie post-surgery, all smiles:
