My surgery was on Tuesday morning, and I spent the night at Jeannie's house. She brought me back home last night because it's easier for me to get in and out of my bed than on a couch or recliner. I spent the entire night last night losing everything I had eaten or drank since the operation.
I am in so much pain I think I might die before I get better. Fortunately I sleep a lot of the time, although it isn't a deep sleep and isn't restful.
Hopefully I can write something more positive in a couple of days. The doctors, nurses, and everyone at the hospital who took care of me were fantastic!

Hopefully in two days you are going to feel so much better. That's about how long it always took me after surgery to think I was going to live again or wanted to. Always wonderful to have doctors and nurses who are caring and dedicated.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry - thank goodness it's all over and now you just have to heal and feel better. Can you call the doctor for something? Anti-nausea meds, or whatever else you need. I HATE meds, but will take them if I really need them. Sounds like you really need them.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon, my friend. I wish there was something I could do to help. :)
