Merry Christmas!!!
Im sorry I didn’t post anything during
the process of this surgery. It was A LOT more painful than I thought it was
going to be. But God is good, and we were able to come home for Christmas J

So
Wednesday through Thursday was kind of a blur… I remember going in to the
operating room, I remember getting the epidural, and I remember being in the
ER, but I don’t remember a lot after that. The first few days were pretty
miserable to be honest. I was in SO MUCH pain, I couldn’t do anything except
lay on my back in bed and watch TV. Rolling over hurt, moving hurt, laughing
hurt, and when it came time for me to “go for a walk”, I thought I might pass
out. The first walk I took was a very slow, painful process, that included many
tears, screams, and resistance. My poor parents were very patient with me as I grouched
in anger, but it was one of the first steps on our check list of things to do
before we were able to leave. The second was eating. At first I was begging for
food, but once I was able to eat, my apitite was as small as a hampsters, and
it almost made me sick. Day by day I was able to sit up without help and walk a
little better, and each day I was slowly coming off all the morphine and pain
meds they were giving me through my IV. On Saturday, my familys favorite restaurant
La Madeline, gave us Christmas dinner! That was an experience, and it was super
yummy! Pumkin pie and everything! It was nice to have something else except
hospital food
