a heads up

[rootofnewt]

i'm sitting in my bed, trying not to nod off (turned on puter b/c i couldn't sleep).

i'm safe and sound... every four hours, i get to beg for pain relief. rather demoralizing, that. the nurses keep trying to give me percocet (gives me severe insomnia, which they don't believe) or darvocet (does not touch the pain my my chest--hello, two tubes in my chest).

boy is here. he can't sleep... poor thing. i think i'll have someone come get him and takehim home later. maybe a carles friend.

anyhow, i'm all foggy headed.

the procedure took 30 min, i was the OR for just under 1.5 hours. the nurses gave me 14 mg of morphine in recovery until they realized that it was not working. only me. sheesh. so they gave me something else (starts with an L).

gotta go, can't keep eyes open.

i love all my friends. they are so amazing.

I have been really worried about you. Sounds like it has been smooth sailing so far, I will keep my fingers crossed for the rest of the trip to be as good!

I answered in Wombat because I saw you there first, but you answered my question here :). I'm glad to see you, woozy or not. Rest and heal.

i'm so glad to hear you came through ok & haven't been given anything allergy inducing! been thinking about you a lot the last day or so.

now go turn off the puter & let the drugs make you sleepy like they're supposed to so you can heal. ;)

I'm glad to hear that things are going well, or at least as well as an operation can. Feel better soon.
