Good (early) morning my friends,
I am now on my 3rd day post op here in Scranton. I went 8 hours without
pain meds last night ( Yaay) Now I am in big pain and probably should
not have tried to be such a big girl, but it is another step...
It is storming here and makes it difficult to want to get out and
venture.
I have been up since about 4am and have had trouble sleeping. We bought
a VCR ( boredom is getting expensive) and I just started to watch the
tape of my surgery, it was a little too graphic for me while I was
hurting and waiting for the meds to kick in.
Dr. Redan or Gerhart will come up one more time today and then my mom
and I leave tomorrow for Philly on our long trek home. I miss my
family, yet I know I should be relishing this peace and quiet and
rest...
I am longing for my bed, my husband, my daughters, my dogs...
I cannot wait to feel good again. I have been told to be reaalistic and
be prepared that it will take time, I have the time to get better, I was
just out of time to get worse!!
Thank you for humoring me with this lengthy note!
I hope you all enjoy your Memorial Day holiday;
Love,
Kelly Doucet
