You don't even have anything covering your incisions. Are you able to take a shower already? I thought that you would have those butterfly bandaids for a few days. I also like the site of your port. Not too high or too low. You look great! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks!

There is actually this hard, plasticy material covering them. My doctor calls it glue and that's kind of what it feels like. Clear though. The stitches are on the inside. I am able to take a shower. They asked me to wait 24 hours so I took one his afternoon around 4PM. Felt great!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
