No sugar coating tonight

Tonight I'm sick.

The surgery went well this morning.  I came out of the anesthesia feeling pretty good.  The surgery was at 7am and I was home by 10am.  I took it easy today, but I feel like I've just felt worse and worse and the day has gone by.

I think the events of the last 7 days have just caught up with me.  I'm sore.  The nurse blew my vein when she put my IV in for the surgery and I have a 4" black / blue circle on my forearm.  

Larry has spent the day keeping things up and going around here today, and I am so thankful for his help.

I have 2 good friends that are pharmacists.  I wish I could call them right now and see if it's OK to take Ambien with Lortab.  But I think it's too late.

Tonight I feel like I have cancer.

Good Thought:
I have wonderful friends helping me out.  My needs and my families needs are being met.  Now I am going to focus on feeling better.  Tomorrow is a new day!

  2. I hope you are having a better day today. I have been thinking about you and know that there probably isn't anything I can really say that will help, other than I am praying for you and to tell you that you are courageous and you give others hope! Thank you for sharing your journey.
