I can only write so much ahead of time. But from what I understand, I will be moved to my room this morning after a long long long day/evening of surgery, then an overnight in recovery. I am assuming that I really do feel like I have been hit by a train, so blogging won't be on my list of things to do just yet. Today they will expect me to get out of bed. If I can make to the bathroom then the catheter can come out. I certainly hope I can do it. I will have other tubes in me for a while. They are surgical drains that I will actually bring home with me. Necessary evils. But, I did get a new jacket from the PS's nurse that will hold my drains while I walk around at home. It looks like a blue blazer - very upscale. My plan was to wear zip-up sweatshirts. Instead I'll be very stylish.
My friend Jenny reminded me that I needed to make sure that everyone who touches me has washed his/her hands. So I have created a couple of signs that I have laminated (so that I can wipe them down) to hold up when I don't feel like talking. I understand that there will be steady parade of on-lookers, touchers, pokers, etc. I can clearly remember when MeiMei was in the hospital that they spent alot of time in the middle of the night checking on her. Must be a pretty normal thing.
