Evie was released from the hospital on Saturday, the earliest day she might have been set free. The range her doctor gave her before she was admitted was for release between Saturday and Monday, or later, depending on when...if...her digestive tract resumed normal function.
She was weak and fatigued before the operation those realities are intensified now. She's allowing me to pamper her without protest.
Sadly for her, I don't mind cooking but I'm a HORRIBLE cook, beyond heating things up. So, I'm an ace at scrambling an egg, but I'm horrible with foods including multiple ingredients.
And, she is an excellent cook who loves cooking.
As far as recovering from the actual surgery, she healing inside AND she has two incisions that are stapled...and go different directions. This makes moving very painful.
She was given some pretty nice pain medication but she's not taking as much of it as she could, settling mostly for Tylenol.
She's not sleeping well because of the pain, and that's her fault.
She's home and recuperating. But, it will be a long haul, especially until her energy returns, if it ever does.
