Just 7 days post-op.

I have tried mixing my many medications with water based mediums (jello, water, flavored water, broth (chicken and beef) and even though it was a bit too early for it, I even tried apple sauce.

Day 3 post-op and I'm missing the hospital. Even the nurses coming and going and the hallway door noises were more managable than I've been been able to manage at home. I had arranged it so I'd be ...

I already posted about peeing and no one wants to hear more about that.

I am so very happy that everything and I mean every little damned thing went so well and smoothly for me. I had wanted...
