My wife is home from the hospital
Hello everyone,
I just wanted you to know that Michelle came home from the hospital this afternoon. She is having a little bit of pain and is taking the Lortab for it, which is kicking her butt and making her sleepy. She is doing the sip, walk, sleep and pee routine right now. Her belly is a little swollen from all the IV fluid and the surgery, I think she will feel a lot better when she gets rid of this extra fluid.
She is so happy to be out of the hospital, took a short walk out side, I think she had a little cabin fever. Also her room mate was driving her crazy, because she was noisy, up most of the night with visitors until after 1 am both nights and just mean and nasty to the nurses. She had some sort of abdominal, but not weight loss surgery, she did not walk and as we left they were working her up for a blood clot in her leg. (Just goes to prove how important it is to walk after surgery and to wear the compression stockings). I am sure now that she's home, I will be driving her crazy soon!
It feels so good to have her home again and I am sure she will be herself within a couple of days. Thanks for all of your positive thoughts , it has meant so much for both of us. Jim
