My two surgeries, hernia and bladder, were taken care of today. The doctor repairing or lifting the bladder tube did an excellent job. I am already experiencing improvement.
The doctor repairing the hernia, found and repaired TWO hernias. I am at home and moving very slowly. My stomach muscles are in constant pain as if I had done a 1000 crunches... or more. It hurts!! I am wearing an On-Q pain pump that is delivering anesthesia directly to the site. If it hurts while wearing this pump... I wonder how much it would hurt to not be wearing it.
Here is information on the pump: http://doctorfinders.com/onq.php I am also taking oral pain meds. These are making me sleep and I don't mind at all. As soon as I finish this blog, I am going back to bed.
My MOM made ME a Banana Pudding!! Yea!! What a wonderful treat!!
Exercise:
Are you kidding me? It is exercise just getting up out of a chair or up out of the bed... or walking.
Inspirational though:
Ephesians 3:17-19
New International Version (NIV)
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
