At Home

Well we are finally at home! This was harder than I expected and easier if that makes sense. Today I feel almost normal. LOL The hospital we had surgury at was horrible. But... we made it and that is all that counts. I seem to be doing pretty good but my daughter is having a harder time. The doctor said it was common in his experience the 20-30 have a harder time with recovery. He said they have had less experience of things happening to their body and their mind isnt as used to pain. Hmmm I thought my daughter would do better than the old me. LOL. I havent felt hungry and that is so suprizing to me. The amount of time before I could have anything to drink in the hopsital seemed like an eternity. I had Surgury on May 20th at 9:30 am. I didnt get to drink anything until the 21st at 2:20 pm. UGGG but Thanks to this board I was ready. I am so thankful people suggest biotene. I would not of made it with out that and the sponges on a stick. Oh well. I am excited to see the scale start going down. Kinda depressing to see that I am 10 lbs heavier today than I was when I checked into the hospital. I know its because of all the fluids and it will go fast. Just hard to see all your hard work gone. Oh well Thank you everyone for your support and prayers. And if you havent had the sugury out there, hang tough you can do it. Dont question it. Even on the second day when you wish you were dead. It will be worth it I am sure and once you start feeling better it comes on fast.
