the surgery is over

and done with and everything is now healing. i felt really cruddy yesterday but feel better today. i was supposed to have a drain taken out yesterday but the doctor thought there was too much fluid still. i told bruce when we went in I just gave it to God and if it's God's will that it gets taken out, it will. but it wasn't. so it supposed to come out monday. kind of awkward wearing this drain and hangs down between my boobs all the time. i change this little tube in it every day. i plan on getting in the tub in a bit and getting cleaned up. that will feel so good. bruce has been taking very good care of me. we have a friend that's an RN and she stayed with me for the last 2 days. bruce had appointments thursday for him and then friday he worked. i can't lift anything over 10# and can't like walk on the track or bicycle for at least 2 weeks. can't drive for 2 weeks. i think the doctor about choked when i asked when could i start walking on the track and he said how far? i said oh, like a mile or 2 and he said maybe 1 lap but definitely not a mile until 2 weeks. yesterday was a really cruddy day for me. i always told patients that the 3rd day post op was always the worse. i thoroughly believe that because yesterday was my 3rd day post op and i was just cruddy all day. mom couldn't be at the hospital but she came over yesterday afternoon to see me. we had alot of people at the hospital with bruce. penny stayed the night with me the night of surgery. bruce had a ferocious headache that night and i told him to just get better. i really appreciated penny being there. i better go as i'm tired. take care everyone, treasa
