I'm Home and recovering

The surgery was last Monday the 28th of January. Everything went well, the doctor told Judi that he was very pleased with everything. Monday night was a little rough, couldn't have any water or even ice chips, they gave me some little sponges on sticks that I could swab my dry mouth with. I had a little problem with the blood pressure they couldn't get it to stablize. I felt fine, I think it was their machines. They gave me an extra bag of something and I know a bag of potassium along with antibotics. My sugar level also when crazy for a little bit and they ended up giving me insulin twice but then it corrected itself. I have 6 little incisions all over my belly, closed with staples. I go to the doctor on Feb. 7th to get them out.

They got me up on my feet on Tuesday. I walked the hall a little bit, and I was able to use the bathroom, hooray. They released me on Wednesday, and have been doing alright at home. I just have to get my schedule straight for eating 3 meals and 3 snacks(the snack is a protein drink). I even ate cream of wheat for breakfast today. I do not like cream of wheat and always gag on it, but I made it really soupy and was almost able to drink it down.

I had George bring me a walker from church when he went to dinner on Wednesday. I have been using it around the house and not always using my rolly chair. Tomorrow, Sunday, its suppose to be nice and hope to go outside and walk down to the end of our street. I plan on making church in the morning. I need to go and thank the Lord again for all the blessings he has given me this week, and see all my friends there too.

Thank you all again for your prayers and continued support. As soon as I can tell that I have lost, I will add some pictures.
