Leave It To Me
Sneezes have their purpose. Let’s keep things tidy in the nose. Sneezes can be quite the challenge when your chest is wired and glued together. I have my hospital-given heart pillow close at hand and then hang on to it for all it’s worth. The pillow was clutched as hard as I could and the chest was fine. But, I puled a muscle in my left side. Good grief! Leave it to me.
My first visit to a doctor since surgery. Blood pressure and temp were good. The incision looked AOK. My hemoglobin was 8.3 when I was discharged. In the six days I have been home, we have been working on getting more red meat into me. A Kid’s Happy meal is not going to cut it. Dennis was off to the store. One of his purchases will be on the menus this evening . . . liver and onions. We’ll get this done.
This morning it was brisk for the walk outside at 6:30. No matter. Me, my long pink nightie, slippers and the walker stepped it off. Mission completion.
I now have graduated to having a second chair for hanging out in that I can easily get in and up and out of. Success in healing.
