I'm home and alive

Hey all,

Well I just got home and I am doing well. I do kind of feel like I got hit by a truck but think that' most still just trying to detox from the drugs. I have little to no discomfort at all in my tummy other than a little bit of lower intestinal gas rumbling around.

It's all still a little sureal.

Catch you all after a nice nap and thanks to everyone who stopped in to visit and sent support messages.

Welcome Home! Glad that you are feeling OK. The next 2 weeks will be the roughest with the adjusting. Keep your head up and we are all here no matter what! I drive right by on my way home if you need anything too just shout 610-462-1204 is my cell.

Enjoy the wild ride!

Sip Sip Sip Walk Walk Walk! Oh and Follow The Rules!!!

Hi Melanie,
I am so sorry I was unable to visit you while you were in the hospital.  I got called to work at the last minute for Monday and Tuesday.  Hopefully, I will be at the next post-op meeting and we can meet then.

Keep sipping and walking.  Glad you are home. 

That Mack Truck feeling is totally normal. 

Hugs,
Trish

Glad you're also home and doing well!  I think it's going to almost feel weird to sleep through a whole night without anyone coming in to check my vitals or tell me it's time to walk!
