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.
So I guess there will be about 8 or 9 bottles of naners that I can bring to donate to gleaners at the pitchin.  I am very much looking forward to meeting you all then.

And I want to send a special thanks to Gail, you are such a sweet sweet soul.  Thanks for calling me today. 

Well, I'm going to make myself pace around the living room 5 or 6 times.

Congrats on your surgery and doing so well.  You are doing amazing on protein already.  I still struggle with it.  It sounds like you are doing just fine.  Keep the walking and moving going on.  It will make your recovery go even faster. 

Im happy for you and am proud of you for being so strong and deteremined!!
