So, how am I?

[callistra]

I think today I learnt that I need to spend more time in bed.

Bed's still not quite at the bored to tears stage, and I actually slept more than I expected to. My pain levels are nicely low too, so I guess Bed and I are going to be even better friends for another day or so.

I had a rather awesome dream where I was a pilot of a ship. The ship would sometimes make a male form, and be difficult, sometimes demanding I wrestle with him before it would take off and things like this. Kind of like the ship who sang, but with more porn. Heh.
:-)

I have been completely unable to do *anything* other than FB games and sleep. This is kind of annoying, because so many people were like "Eh! Keyhole surgery, you'll be up and about in a week!" Except tomorrow is a week, and I intend to spend most of it in bed. Again.

I'm pretty positive though. I am feeling very well supported and loved by many many awesome people in my life. I feel guilt cos I have nothing exciting to talk about, so I try not to talk about my tummy all the time LOL John has done an absolutely STERLING job in mealplanning, gettting the kids organized for daycare and cooking and everything. I am so pleased, this has meant I really have had the time and space to heal. It's an absolute godsend. Absolutely brilliant.

I read a book today! I need to write a review of it, but OMG I read a book! It was a kids book, very easy reading, rather cool. I'd happy consume the other five in the series if they were a) out already and b) on hand. :-)

I think the lying in bed all day has been rather good. Less pain tonight, which is exactly why I was trying to all day in bed thing, and I am feeling a little bit mentally sharper every day. My apologies to any one getting deluged with FB notifications, I do try and tell the programes to skip any they ask me about, and don't know how to turn off the ones that don't ask me if it's OK.

"Eh! Keyhole surgery, you'll be up and about in a week!"

Those people are retarded. Honestly I had to have it drummed into me when I had keyhole that I was not superwoman and while the surgery may seem small, its still major bloody surgery just the proceedure is different.

Do they even know what happens during keyhole surgery?

*throws hands in air and continues to rant*

And in general the modern idea of healing is just wrong! All get up and go and no convalescence and hope modern medicine will pull them through.

I think its more the modern idea of "omg you've had far too many sick days from work, you shouldn't have this many, we don't care if you had major surgery or cleared it with your manager, this is a problem!"

Which is something I had said to me, of course not in that exact way but not far off it.

One thing I've noticed with the medical side of things since my accident is that if they don't know whats wrong they go slow and steady with the recovery and some doctors will even fight for you.

Its a pity that one retired on me :(

That sounds horrible!

It has been and still is at times but the messy side of things are coming to a close, then its just a matter of adjusting.

How is your hubby doing?

I hope you recover as quickly as you are able. In the mean time I hope you find suitable distractions
