I'm home too!
I got home this afternoon.
I still hurt a bit on the left side, but I've read that's normal.
Still having a difficult time getting in the full 90 of protien...I've made it to 80 both today & yesterday, but I've gotta work harder on that.
Doing good with the vitamins.
I'll be happy when I get my voice back. The intubation did some damage to my
vocals. People have been calling me squeek since surgery.
Getting in the two ounces at meals is better since I got home cause I have nifty
baby food.
I've found out that babyfood bananas, which I used to love, are too sweet.
I was worried that my 2yr old daughter, Sophia, would try to hop on my stomach. I just showed her my stomach and explained that mommy had "Bad Owwies" and she hasn't tried to climb on me. she's a smart cookie.
Well, I'm going to make myself pace around the living room 5 or 6 times.

I am glad everything went well. I am still on clear for awhile my stomma was a little tight so I had to stay one more night to stay hydrated. I start full next week and maybe puree the following. I am just going to play it by ear. I am so stuffed just by drinking water that I don't mind. My doctor told me not to worry about the protein until two weeks out so I am just staying hydrated. Good luck and take care.
