It's the 2nd already! Seems that I lost a day somewhere! I came home yesterday and am doing pretty well -- A shower was the highlite of today! (It's the little things!) The pain is managable - we alternate percosett and ibuprofen on an overlapping 6 hour rotation, which is working well. The docs pump gas into you to expand the abdominal cavity so they can see what they are doing, and that makes me bloaty and uncomfortable - and I am pretty tired (no big surprise there!)
However -
I am deeply thankful that
I don't have to wait for any pathology --
that this was "routine" --
that there was not scar tissue from last year to mess up the surgery --
I am also very thankful for all your prayers because I am able to manage the pain, to walk well, to drink a lot of water, to manage the indigestion -- my nurses and aids were nice -- we had lots of cards, e-mails and some nice visits.
I am especially thankful for Todd taking such good care of me (one of the nurses complimented him on how considerate and skilled he is! I am blessed!)
Thank you for your prayers --
and for checking in!
Blessings to you!
