Had dressing changed and doctor said it's coming along OK, not good, not bad, so I will probably have to wait til Saturday for the skin graft.

Happy Birthday, Melissa

   It's great to hear you're doing well.
   Please pick up some boyfriends and girlfriends for the rest of us. We'll pay you back when you get here. Pick up an extra girlfriend for yourself. We'll cover that one too.   ;)



Love,

Rebis

I am bored.

Get yerself down the gym then and (a) work out (b) get pulled!

Unfortunately the laying on the back thing is boring. I passed the time by counting bed sores, watching my urine bag fill up, pulling the intraveonous drip out my hand, trying to find the remote control for the TV and trying to not think about the packing coming out!

Can't you get up and walk a little. I did, every chance I got. I looked out the window and walked around the room with all the tubes hanging out of me. That tired me out. I got some things to read, like their newspaper in English. I even messed with the drip system and then broke it by accident. Well, I shouldn't be allowed around mechanical things. It wasn't broken just the dials were all messed up and the buttons. You will be out soon enough.

Whatever you do, Melissa, do NOT take the advice of Buffy and Sheila  :D

They sound like terrible patients   :D

Well, I feel better now that the puppies have been let out to breath, looking quite cute too, I also found a couple decent TV channels one of which carries Ugly Betty and some really strange reality shows, I also recorded/worked on some voice samples. So I am feeling better.

Glad you keep checking in Melissa. It's good to know your progress. Don't blame you about the boredom. I hate sitting around too. Any books available for you?

Ahhhhh...I am out of the loop!  very funny.

I will warn the lesbo population that they can relax for a couple months, than look out.

Thai Boyfriends- that one is new to me too. I had my surgery done in Thailand and didn't know they were called that. I guess I'm a smuggler of imigrants as I imported three of them without proper ID. I'm sure glad the homeland security people were not around back then. My boyfriends would have been deported.

I only brought three books, Shrub, Power vs. Force which I left on the plane and the AA "big book" I just finished re-reading Shrub and it depressed me.

I should be grateful and am that I have internet access. Been reading a lot on Thai Buddhism, I am becoming more and more Buddhist in my thinking. I was depressed for all of ten minutes or so when I got the not so good progress report. Then my spirituality took over and I quickly realized that i have no control over these things besides the obvious (taking care of myself)

Thursday (tomorrow) I am having the dressing changed at noon, supposedly the skin graft will wait til saturday, I keep getting the feeling that my healing has improved and that  skin graft will actually take place tomorrow. As I have said before I am prescient but I am not sure this is a premonition or wishful thinking. Anyway, it is beyond my control.

I have been sleeping very well (and a lot) and having beautiful, though sometimes weird, dreams.

No dream is more beautiful than a weird dream.

Stay well, you lucky girl.

Tomorrow, Saturday, I will finally have my skin graft, then three days bed rest, then I finally get to see it, in fact, Dr S will give me a tour and the nurse will show me how to dilate. The nursing staff here is great, they are always laughing and smiling.

This am, I got up, washed my hair, got made-up, put on a stretch tee, with the hospital wrap skirts they give you, what a look! But I did look good, and when Dr S came in, his eyes kinda lit up, he said, "Oh, you look goooooooooood." The puppies (he calls them bleasts) are looking more natural every day and I am keeping my waistline tight as I am eating very lightly, fruit and one rice dish per day. Tonight, I am going to splurge and have an omelette and shrimp with prawns as I will have to fast for about fifteen hours.

When I get back to San Francisco and can start exercising, I am going to work on taking another inch off my waist. Gosh, I will have to fight off those older dykes at the gym. I might start working out in the co-ed area too just to tease the guys. LOL
