Home and on my way to recovery

Aug 21, 2009

So i was really nervous when i got to the hospital..but everything went well. Thank God. I had a successfull surgery without any complications. Dr Quinlin was great.. i couldnt even mention his name without someone reminding me of what a great doctor he is. So im thankful that i ended up with the best surgeon. As for the nursing staff at St Margaret's .. im not so sure. i wasnt super happy with the nursing staff. I just somehow didnt feel like my care was their primary focus. But anyway just glad that im home and on my way to recovery.

So i got home on wednesday afternoon...and im feeling a lot of pain.. but i know that it will take me time to recoop.. im just trying to take it slowly. i make sure i get enough to drink..take a walk.. and plenty of rest. Boy the pain meds they give u will put u out...But my husband is taking care of the house and kiddy duties for now..so im thankful for that.

The one thing that bothered me is that my job called me and told me that i have 28 days of short term before they expect me back. I found that strange.. since my recoop and recovery is totally up to me and my doctor!! how can they tell me when i will be well enough to come back...anyway just venting.. my first follow up is not until next friday the 28th..so ill wait and see how that goes before i start to argue with them.

Overall im doing fine.. thanks for everyones support...just wanted to let everyone know that im home and okay//

Thanks for listening
