3 Days Later

Well, it is 3 days post surgery, and I have to say it's not been too bad.  I feel good although I find myself taking naps which I usually don't do.  I got a shower yesterday which felt amazing.  Thursday I spent all day in my pajamas.  The pain is pretty non descript.......once in a while when I lift my arm too fast but for the most part nada.  The incision under my arm is by far the worst part. Proabably because it is involved in so many movements. However in retrospect, thinking back to my shoulder surgery after my car accident, this really is a piece of cake! I took one pain killer the first night and two extra strength tylenol the next day, but otherwise nothing.  Actually, pain stuff makes my stomach hurt worse than what little pain I might have.  So just thought I would let you all know that things are going well.  The worst part is wanting to pick up Nathan which I am not supposed to lift over 10# for at least a week. But all in good time.  They had about 6-8 inches of new snow here last night so I guess we wouldn't have been heading home yesterday even if they hadn't scheduled me for appointments on Tuesday.  All in all, I am still extremely thankful for the way everything has turned out.  God is good!  So hugs to all....I will proabaly update again on Tuesday after my appointments unless something else exciting happens.  ;o)  Patsy
