So it has been a long week. It all started with surgery on Monday. It didn’t quite as planned, but we eventually made it home around 9 pm. I ended up a full 24 hours without food… so I was hungry! I had a bit to eat and then took a few pain pills and got a good nights sleep.
Tuesday morning I actually felt fine. The dr called an I said no pain at all… that was a mistake. Around 8 pm I had some pain start so I took my pain medicine. Around 11:30 the real pain set in and I had to get Richard up to help. I took some more pain medicine, but still didn’t sleep well that night.
Wednesday was a rough day. Everyone said I looked pale and I slept most of the day. The pain didn’t really set in again until the evening, but we were icing my foot most of the day. I took some pain medicine and got a good nights sleep last night.
Today is the day I go back to the doctor to have the dressing changed and he said we may try to put some weight on my foot. I am not sure I like the sound of that as I think that may be painful… But it will be good to see what my foot looks like under all the bandages.
Sounds dreadful. Take things slowly and look after yourself.
