Home from the hospital

Aug 08, 2009

Hi,

I got home from the hospital two hours ago. Still tired and very sore. Honestly, I didn't anticipate it was going to be as painful as it was. I was overwhelmed with pain the first day and early on the second day. Thank God for morphine. Maybe I wasn't giving myself enough morphine on day one (I just pushed a button and it gave me a dose every 15 minutes). I made sure I got more in on the second day, and it helped.

I'm very bloated and swollen. Trying to sip, sip, sip, and walk, walk, walk. It's amazing to be 6 lbs. higher coming home than when I went in. I guess it's all of the fluids and gas?

Thanks again for all of the well wishes and prayers.

Blessings,

Carolyn
