Surgery Day #2

I'm home! The surgery was much easier and the pain is easier, just had a rough time with the anesthesia this time. I wasn't out very long, maybe that's why. Maybe it's because ECT is pms'ing and I felt nauseous this morning when I woke up. I have a killer caffeine headache right now. That's interesting to me, I have diloted (have I mentioned how I feel about that?) from my iv, a vicodin and some tylenol, breast is ok no current pain-head is killing me. Waiting for some more coffee to brew, this is after some at the hospital.

Feeling a little "wobbly" and having hot/cold flashes, but other than that feeling fine. Will blog tomorrow on the entire day again, so those who can't hear me first hand, can know exactly what happened!

Update on the fluid build up in the arm, it's all gone and the incision looks great. Dr. took out the stitches and said it looked great (big sigh of relief!)

The prayers, well wishes, posts, cards, calls, texts, everything REALLY get me through this. I can actually FEEL all of that energy when I'm down and concentrating VERY hard on not puking. It was nice to think of all the wonderful encouraging words I got through out the day. I know it's hard to be my cheerleader all the time, but we're only 1/3 (first base) through this and let me tell you now, I will KEEP needing them.

Sorry to be such a needy friend, but I'm telling you up front, I NEED you all. Thanks for walking this pink path with me and thanks for helping me. I hope NO ONE ever gets this-or anything remotely like it, but believe me, whatever path life leads you on, if you need an extra boost during any of it (the rest of your life) know that I am there, front and center!!!
