I'm Back
Well, it has been odd to be offline for so very long. Although I have all the time in the world, I just have not been up to posting. Does that mean I am up for it today? Not really but I wanted to post a progress update.This surgery was much harder on me than the original surgery. I have had a very difficult time dealing with the pain. I run a low grade fever every day and there are times not to talk to me. I am miserable starting at around 7:00 every night until I manage to fall asleep. Sleep has been elusive. Last night I was up until 2:00 and then up again at 5 and then 7. After Paul left for work, I did get back to sleep for another hour. I end up sleeping in Paul's chair on most nights as I can get more comfortable there than I can lying flat on my back in bed.
The days pass very slowly. I am not yet to the point where I can read for any length of time. Apparently, pain medicine does more than help with the pain. It totally confuses me. I can read the same paragraph six times before I really understand what it says.
Paul and Brandon have been great making sure. Brandon was over for a few days last week helping me out while Paul was at work. He also comes down and takes me to the doctor. Of course, I have to pay him to do it but it lets him earn some money and makes life easier on Paul.
Well, I am going to go for now. My love to all.

glad that you are at least able to sit at the computer for a brief time. It is good to hear how you are doing, and I pray for release from that pain. Glad that Brandon is available when needed. Love and hugs, Dad
Hope your recuperation speeds up now that you are able to write about it. Just blog away the pain. ???
Good to have you back. I've checking the blog to see how you're doing. Will continue to lift you up in prayer
