I’m home from the hospital!

I’ve been sent home after only 4 days post-surgery. The worst of my surgery recovery is now over. I’m really going to miss: being hooked up to an epidural, IV, urinary catheter, and NG tube, taking morphine (not really), eating liquid diets, getting CAT scans, needles for blood work, sleep interrupted every hour, the smells, the tastes, the sounds. In other words, it’s good to be home.
