Five days post-surgery

It has been hard for me to journal this week with not feeling my best during recovery, being in the hospital and having my family here. I will catch up tomorrow. Just when I sit down to catch up with my email or try to post an update, the phone rings, or I get called away from the computer, or it is time to change my dressing and/or empty my drains. I will try to find a moment tomorrow because it is late now and I want to be more clear headed when I write. I have been struggling with nausea and pain this week, and trying to find the best balance. I finally figured it out, but it is a lot of effort to maintain. I will refocus tomorrow, and I have phone calls to make that I have put off due to not feeling well enough to chat at the time.

On to bed for now.
