Saturday - 3/26/10

I woke up this morning around 8am to find that Connie has been up since at least 5:38am. At that time she measured her drainage and wrote it down...36cc in the past 7 hours...not bad. I get up, make myself some breakfast (Connie only wants Chocolate Milk...still not too hungry) and record her morning medications. She took only 1 pain pill again. She still has 3 more pills left from her last surgery, so we are waffling on if we're going to need to purchase another bottle with the new prescription today. Connie is much more mobile than after her last surgery. She says that her chest is just a dull throb now, and there is a little pain under her armpit where she had surgery yesterday, of course. She is already able to twist just a little bit more than yesterday. I head downstairs to work after tucking her back in on the couch to try and get a little more sleep while listening to CMT on the television.

  1. I'm glad you are doing well. You must have a high pain threshold, that's good! Make sure and do the exercises they give you, the one where you crawl your hand up the wall. It will really help you in the future.
    Take care,
    Cynthia
