Michelle is home.

I am home from the hospital finally. I took a fall in health on Monday and had to wait another day before I could leave. With two homeschoolled children I am not getting the rest I need. Every time i take a nap someone calls to say hello or drops by. I love the company but that Murphy who wrote Murphy's law is a little unmerciful. I am still on basically an ice chip diet. the down fall in my health happened because they gave me meds and foods I am allergic to. I warned then but they didn't listen. I am allergic to nutra sweet and they gave me jello with nutra sweet in it. so then they gave me regular jello which made me dump. so i know that i do dump. I am feeling sore and tugging feelings on my belly. I know that Dayna has told us all to eat protien but right now i just don't want to eat. please let me know if all of this is really normal.

Hang in there girl!! You will be back to your old self (I MEAN THE NEW YOU) in no time at all!!!!!!!!!!!! Take Care, Turn off the phone, lock the door and GET SOME REST!!!!!! Kell

Hi Michelle, glad to see that you are home, but sorry to hear that you aren't doing well. I remember for the first week or so I didn't feel like eating at all. I ate a lot of popsicles. The thought of food made me sick. It does get better though. sorry to hear about the bad time in the hospital. As for being home, I agree with what Kelley said, turn off the phone, and lock the door. Take care, Heather

Hi Michelle, See I told you you would make it home in one piece! Don't worry too much about eating. Make sure you are getting enough to drink so you don't become dehydrated. Feeling sore, and the tugging is just what I felt, it will go away over time. Try to get plenty of rest. Maybe the kids can have a little vacation time so you can recover. You won't be much use to them if you take forever to recover. Essentially your surgery was a family affair, all should be understanding and helpful. Goodluck, Casey
