Being home has been wonderful today. It's amazing what a good nap in your own bed can do for you. Yesterday's pain was an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. Today, it's down to a 4. That's terrific.
I'm having to learn to rest a lot - it's not easy for me to laze around but it does help so I'm doing it anyway. It's kind of nice to have an excuse to wear PJ's and slippers all day. :)
The turbin's coming off in the morning! Mark and my Mom are doing the unvailing. That'll be a relief because this sucker's tied really tight! Dr. Ostrowski's turbin tieing skills were the talk of our floor w/ the nurses - aparently he's good. He's been really wonderful to us and even called today to see how I'm doing. When I was prepping for surgery, I got a little anxious and he came over and held my hand until I fell asleep. It's certainly reassuring to have a doc who's a good man and good surgeon. :)
