Surgery

Before surgery, I'm surprised Aaron got a smile out of me...I was super nervous, my surgery was over 2 hours late and it was 2 pm and all that I'd eaten that day were 2 graham crackers at 6 am.




The day of. I could barely keep my eyes open that evening.



Friday after a day of flying.


Last night, my biggest incision. It's a bit irritated since it's always getting rubbed there.


The 5 other incisions.


The contusions in my throat, it's no wonder it felt like I had strep for 3 days.



Overall it's gone pretty well. I could have used one more day at my parents, but school started today, so I didn't have the option. I am typing with two hands now and think I'll be able to put my hair up in a day or two. There has been a lot of pain, starting from the beginning. Aaron said it was one of the first things I said when I came to. I stopped any real pain meds after puking up my last Vicodin at 5:30 Saturday morning. I'm also still a bit foggy from the anesthesia, so I'm looking forward to the next few days when I get back to normal.

Ouch, that makes me sore just looking at it, I hope the healing goes well, and I also hope this gives me my volleyball partner back in time for doubles next summer when I am home again :)
