Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing well. As of today Im 2 weeks and one day post op & feeling good.Dont getme wrong, Im still in pain, but its much more tolerable that even just a few days ago. For the past few days I am even able to ahh....wipe after "1" and "2" on my own. I have a trick....I make sure the toilet paper is hanging down a bit, then I just have to reach out a little to the left ,grab the paper and whaammoo, there is it! And reacing "back there" at first was a little shakey, but after the 2nd try I got it! I was a Kodak moment! LOL Grossss...kidding of course. Last night I took a shower AND I WASHED MY OWN HAIR!! Whhoooaa!! LOL I am also able to walk a short distance w/out my walker which freeks everyone out....which makes me giggle inside...lol...but I can do it. If I didnt think I couldnt, I wouldnt!! I also was able to goto the freezer, grab the box of frozen waffles and make my 4 year old his breakfast! Of course my aunt Sue was there watching me....I make her nervous too! Speaking of Aunt Sue...I have a lot of help love & support from my family & my friends. Aunt Sue comes over almost everyday to help me out & watch my 4 year old. My Mom comes over alot too & is always asks if I need anything.....she's the best..and all of my friends stop over & visit & keep me company and also bring us food! My cousin makes a mean home made mac & cheese by the way!! Now Im babbling,sorry! Either way, I just wanted to say that Im doing OK...having those ups and downs still, but not quite as often! (the downs) For those who are now counting down to the "big day", my only advice is just know you will be OK & that you will adjust & remember,if you are a "I need it now" kind of person, ya better start on a new way of thinking. Thanks for letting me talk...I think its nap time now.
ps- Just watched a HILARIOUS movie(stayed awake too!) Step Brothers..Oh My God I laughed soooo hard and it hurt like hell! Sooo, to those who wanna see this movie do it before your surgury!! LOL
Take Care! Lynn
