think I have had such a high expectation of my recovery, it may have been a hindrance.... My recovery from the brain surgery 8 years ago was EASY. No headache and was running marathons in 2 days, well, maybe not marathons, but I felt awesome! I guess hitting the big 3-0 was harder on me than I thought. I have had zero energy and horrific headaches until.... yesterday. The doctor called in a different medication, nonnarcotic and NO ITCHING and it took away the pain!!!! I took one yesterday afternoon and had no problem until I woke up today at 7:30, with a pounder, but after 1 more pill I am once again pain-free. Dad is back in MadVegas currently, but heading back to the 'ville tonight after work. Mom and I have enjoyed having my brother, Seth, a ball of energy, around to pick up food and do chores around the house. So with my headache gone, I have developed an appetite again which helps with my energy!! I really think I am turning a corner :). He is such a handyman!! We have all enjoyed the time together, just wish it wasn't under the current circumstances...... He is flying back to Atlanta Sunday afternoon, but Friday he is packing up his family (my adorable nieces) in the van and driving up for a long week-end with us!!! I can't wait to see the girls, I just hope my incision and haircut doesn't scare them.
I am so thankful of the calls, messages, prayers, cards, and hospital visits. We have the best family and friends, God has blessed us heavily!!!
