all done and home.

Jul 02, 2009

I had my surgery the first and home the 2nd.  I am hurting but not from the incisions....it is the gas.  Nothing prepared me for the gas pain.  I was hurting so bad after surgery I was vomiting and they finally started me on a pump.  I demanded to get out of bed within 2 hours because I knew walking was the only thing that was going to help.  It made a world if difference just taking a 2 minute walk to the end of the hall and back.  I then started walking every hour and after just a couple times was making it around the 100 bed ward of the hospital.

The ride home sucked.  Traffic was bad and it took us 3 hours to go 60 miles.  I tried to sleep but it didn't work.  We did get out and walk around once during the trip.  Well I am going to try to go back to bed.   I needed to come take a couple bites of food and take some pain meds.  That is the easy part!!!  I will write more in a couple days when I feel better.
