This is what FULL feels like...

I'm officially home on the road to recovery, each day is better than the day before.  Right now I am drinking an ounce every half an hour.  I'm not in too much pain, I feel ok. 

I feel full all the time, you know that feeling of "oh i'm starving" and it's cause you haven't eaten in a long while well that feeling is gone.  I am officially full all the time.  I tire easily but I'm trying my best to keep up with doctors orders, drink my clear protein that tastes awful.  The only thing that tastes good is water. 

I have staples all along my belly.  That feels weird.  My dog Eddie won't leave my side.   He's become my nurse making sure I am ok.  Laddy too has shown his discomfort with my surgery by chewing up my headphones and my $80 toothbrush.  Apparently those things needed to be taken out.  I can't do a lot, I walk, I talk with friends, I've gotten wonderful flowers from loved ones. 

So that's about it, I'm doing ok and I'll keep posting when I start feeling better but I am on a lot of medicines so if this post feels a bit random, I apologize. 



Again, I want to say thanks to my mom, for being there for me in the hospital that first night when it was bad, real bad.  I love you.  And to Steve who's walking with me every night and making sure I'm doing what I should be doing.  Love you too.
