That was an unexpected but pleasant surprise since we had been told she would have to stay overnight. Of course on the drive home she vomited in the car, but we won’t complain. She is a little sore in her throat from the breathing tube and on her bum from the stitches, but seems headed for a quick and complete recovery.
