Hospitals, surgery & emergency room -pink buddy & comfort food. . .
Arrived at hospital for knee surgery only to find that someone did not log out of my account. The person responsible was not there, office was locked and computer not accessible. This prevents patient from being admitted. After 45 minutes of waiting for maintenance to open door and release computer, finally they decided to just print arm band and send me up.
Surgery went well. It was day surgery so I was back home that afternoon. I had to use a walker Thursday and yesterday - thanks, Dad (R.E.) for leaving it here- it came in handy! I am tired of this couch with leg propped up and the ice man machine to keep the swelling down but it will just be for one more day. I get to take all the bandages off and FINALLY take a shower tomorrow!
My HD takes such good care of me. He has been waiting on me and helping with everything. He took me to the emergency room this morning to have me checked out after I started coughing up blood. Apparently it is due to the tube they had in my throat for the surgery, 'cause they took a chest X-ray and did bloodwork to check for clots or infections and found no problems. Got some more good drugs - cough medicine with codeine!!
My HD decided we both needed some comfort food after the morning trip to the hospital.
You're so lucky that Pop is taking such good care of you! I'm glad you are on the mend and don't need the walker, even if I think it's great you needed it within days of your birthday! Be sure and watch my blog on your birthday! :)
