Made it through

May 14, 2014

So I made it through the night. Very rough because there's so much gas/air built up it hurts and so does the hernia repair part and one of the incisions. I push the pain med button then fall asleep then it wears off and I wake up pushing it again every hour just about. Started to feel a little better and not nauseous once anesthesia started wearing off. I plan to get walking today as soon as I can. I will also get to have water sips today! One day at a time. Dr Valentine is so wonderful and funny! I was telling him before surgery yesterday how I thought it would make me less anxious to watch a surgery beforehand and he was telling me how he is very much the same. Guess what happened?! He said it was a great textbook surgery so he recorded it for himself and then also gave me one!
