Bless Your Heart

I’m alive! Everything went really well. We arrived at 6am, surgery was at 8. The IV didn’t hurt like I thought it would, and I have minimal bruising from it. It grossed J out though because he could see the fluid race through the tube and into me. And it caused my left arm to be a lot cooler to the touch than my right so that gave him the heebie jeebies. There was only 1 other adult there having their tonsils out, everyone else was under the age of 5! The nursing staff was just amazing. They were all so sweet. I don’t remember anything after they put the oxygen mask on me and started my anesthetic through the IV. Then I woke up in another room where a nice lady had a popsicle waiting for me. They kept me in a private room until 4 then we came home. The pharmacy read my prescription wrong causing some delays but they made up for it with a $10 gift card. I’m all loopy from drugs and I’ve been sleeping on and off since I got home. I can whisper, but talking is out of the question. My dry erase board and flash cards are coming in handy there! And J’s been just great. Just like you guys, thanks so much for all the sweet wishes for a speedy recovery! =)
