4 Days out

Jul 02, 2009

Well Mom and Dad went home this evening, I hated to see them go but I’ve been getting along pretty well on my own. We removed the On-Q pain relief system yesterday evening. Rebekah just stood there and watched as did Mom, all was fine until a few drops of some light red liquid came out. I caught it in the plastic covering but it was going to need to be wiped up. I looked up and Rebekah and Mom both looked at me then turned around and took off running. Mom took a right into the 1st bathroom and Rebekah kept going straight for the other. I was thinking "I don’t know if that much of a rush was needed" What I hadn't realized is Mom had a weak stomach and was running to puke Rebekah couldn’t find anything to wipe up the blood. The whole episode kind of made me laugh because while they were freaking out so was I, that was kind of damn weird pulling that cathedra 6 inches out of your belly like that. 
        I’ve been cutting back on the pain med today. You can tell from the cathedra removal episode just how good those pain meds are.
        I’ve been trying to see what I can and can not eat with out going crazy. I got down a scrambled egg and protein drink for breakfast this morning. Started keeping a meal log for two reasons 1. To make sure Im getting 70 g of protine and 2. To make sure Im not eating too much.
