Limitations

Jun 29, 2010

The doctors are aware of the fever.  I am to go immediately to the hospital once it passes 100 F  but its been good and I'm back to normal on that front.  The pain I'm told is normal and the coughing is due to being intubated during the surgery.  It's really important to get the gunk out or there is a risk of pnemonia (sp?)  I am taking pain meds and just had my perscription renewed today.  I think part of the problem is that I have high expectations that I will be able to "bounce" back and be my normal self within a very short time frame.  My limitatiions are frustrating to me and I think that is why I push myself instead of relaxing and being within the moment. 

This has been a very real learning experience for me.  It's only been a week since the surgery and my progress has been amazing so far.  I have lost 40 lbs since I have started the journey.  I have had several enlightening "aha" moments and I am coming closer and closer to my authentic self.  For these gifts alone I am grateful.  What i am truly blessed for though is the unconditional support and encouragement that has been given to me by my family and friends.  My life is good.
