So hey there! I am back!
Well Kinda!
Its late and I am doing what I am quickly growing accustomed to doing...putting off sleep.
So, I made it. Through the surgery I mean. The recovery? Not quite yet. But I am able to be upright now and have some sense of clarity. So how was it you may be asking...Man it was/is horrible!
Ok...I am being dramatic. The surgery itself was ok. I was unusually calm before surgery. Adam and God had my back so I felt in a pretty good place. The surgery went well, a success I am told. And even post op recovery was uneventful (thank goodness because with my last surgery I had some complications). But this being banded together is terrible. And you know what? It's not so much the not eating thing...its the finding something to eat that will fit through the cracks in my teeth that stinks. I am getting sick of liquid....Thin liquid. Blended things are too thick. So anyway, I am making it. I have lost 13 lbs in 12 days. You can't tell though. Oh well..
So...getting back to the putting off sleep thing. This surgery is turning me into a big fat insomniac. Sleeping hurts. Unless I am upright. And who wants to sleep upright? I crave to sleep horizontal. So...I am up now...Late. Very Late. Until I just can't stay awake any longer. That way sleep comes quickly and hopefully my face won't pound and throb too hard before I pass out. 6 nights I just stayed up all night and dozed sitting up the next day. This surgery...its just too much!
But I made it! And each day is supposed to get better... Or so they tell me. I will keep you posted :)
