April 19th - post op reportThank all who have taken time to congratulate and comment on these incredible few days.
Last I remember is my bed being pulled through a door to the OR. Then I remember waking up and wondering why they woke me up... Well, they were already done. 3 hours on the OR table. I stayed for two nights in a local hospital and have been discharged since. Now I am in a hotel close by. I could not lay in bed anymore, I had to get up and walk around. The pain is well controlled and absolutely tolerable. I am very tired and could constantly sleep, but that is expected. Some light bleeding but nothing to be worried about. One of the nurses took a picture of it... Now I have proof.
Jayne and my family are here to help out in an incredible way. Getting in and out of cars or the bed/chairs is an amusing experience, but I can say that all the strength training I did beforehand comes in very handy.
I am already walking quite a bit, but I also know that I need to catch some sleep...
More later... Oh and here are two more pictures... Me about to be discharged..
And of course, I did get some sweet "It's a girl" balloons. Thank you
