I'm home
Hello everyone, first let me thank all of you for your prayers, kind words and my visit from Susan. I came home Saturday night about 8:30. I am still in a lot of pain but at least I'm at home on my couch in pain. Every 4 hours my body lets me know it's time for the pain medication.
The mass was larger than the largest grapefruit more cantaloupe size and it weighed about a pound and a half. I need 4 units of blood and wore three chest tubes. I had three of the best doctors in the state. Based on what little information they were able to obtain from the previous idiots and what happened in this surgery I am a bleeder. Apparently this happened before and they just quit and sent me on my way. I have a very long slow recovery process ahead of me. I finally looked at my scar and it scared me. I have a scar half way around my neck and one from my neck to my belly button so much for a two piece swim suit. Oh one more thing my goal weight was 150 I now weigh 147 and that's down two pounds since I came home. Again thank you all so very much and please keep me in your prayers.
