Recovery

I can already tell a great difference in the recovery from the first surgery and this one. Huge. I don't really remember the first two days after the first surgery. I was in and out way too much. This time though it's not that bad. I'm sore and tender and crampy but not doubled over in horrible pain. So this is good. Maybe "they" are right and I'm going to recovery faster. I'm so thankful that I'm not as loopy as I was the last time. I am taking the pain drugs, but at least I don't feel like I'm missing out, lifeless on the couch. I'm trying to not take more than I actually need. My kids currently are at the kitchen table eating breakfast and Mark is trapped in the high chair until someone else comes to rescue him out, since I'm not supposed to get him down. ... And, I'm so thankful for the help I have coming though, be/c I'm not supposed to be lifting Mark which is basically the hardest thing on the planet for a mother to not do. Okay well I think I'm starting to sound redundant so I'll sign off.
