Horriable Pain=Bad night.............

Feb 13, 2010

Last night was the worst night ever

I was home alone, eating some dinner...i chopped all my meat up in tiny tiny pieces there was on piece that was semi med so i chew, chew, chew thought it was small enough to swallow....oh boy was i wrong...it felt like it was stuck...i was in so much pain...felt like a rock stuck in my tummy...so i walked and walked and walked and walked...and cry ed and cry ed and cry ed...try ed to get ahold of my husband he was working, and his cell phone was off...called my sister cry ed, because i couldn't get ahold of mom...finally got ahold of mom and was just in so much pain...i was still up walking, and rubbing my tummy then i started to get nauseated ...i hung up and was about to call the nurse and all this nasty flume started to come up so i ran to the sick in the kitchen"the quickest thing i could get to" then i started to throw up and this piece of meat came up and i felt better....but i was so so so sore...so i ended up taking some pain meds and put the heating pad on my tummy and went to bed....but i DO NOT ever ever want to feel that much pain again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was scary!
today my tummy is still sore, so i'm going to take it easy..and make sure every single thing i eat is pureed!!

The first night was horrible...i had internal bleeding Friday night..my Blood pressure was extremely low, and i had an extremely high heart rate...so i did end up receiving 2 bags of blood..also lots and lots and lots of blood work down...Today i finally got some chicken broth and some grape crystal light...and my dinner as of now is a sugar free Popsicle
I have been up walking alot, this morning i got to take a hot shower (boy that was soo nice) and got my catheter out and this afternoon got almost all my other IVs out so today its going great..hopefully looking at going home on Tuesday...well i will write more sometime soon

It's Finally Done!!!!

Jan 29, 2010

Hello everyone, this is Teresa's lovely sister Renay.  Teresa has been out of surgery since around 4:30pm, she went in at around 11:43pm. The surgery went well, they did notice that she had a fatty liver, so they took a byobsi of it, nothing really to be worried about they said its just from the weight and as time goes on it will be fine.  She is in a lot of pain right now but thank god for those pain medicines. its hard seeing her like this but i know that she is one tough cookie and she will make it through, i will keep updating everyone!!!!!!!! keep her in your prayers!!!!

Happyness

Jan 17, 2010

Today was a great day...
   I babysat my best friends little girl who is 5 1/2 years old...and she is such a doll, and a good little girl (yes she does have her bad days) lol,
   well My husband took her snowmobiling today, and just the joy in his eyes and her eyes made me smile. Then we took her sledding and he went down the hills with her and everything. He is going to be a great dad someday i hope i can fill that for him, and Make him a dad... But around dinner time is what hit me the most, and i had tears...I was making a salad and looking into the front room, and he was teaching her how to use the index, and had his arm around her and trying to sound out words with her and and looking for the number to find what they were looking for, it was truly amazing...He is a amazing husband...and i can't wait to see him as a father...he will be amazing

On another note
Today is 12 days till my surgery date, I'm totally excited!!!
I got on Birth Control on Friday.. I got the implanon put in my arm...Yes it was sore on Fri, and sat, but mostly Saturday, i went snowmobiling and had to push my car out of the ditch and the dog hit my arm...so it was hurting, but i iced it last night for a few hours and today so far its OK...not fully 100% better, but alot better!

Everything else has been going great, the weather has been pretty nice.
Oh, got my mom's treadmill at my house and put up, she is letting me borrow hers until we can get one..
