Hello kiddies,
So you may ask yourself if Val hasn't ran away and joined a convent. I haven't talked to anyone in a week. Well don't worry, I am not a nun. Worse I have been in the hospital. Yep, the "simple day surgery" that was scheduled for next month, turned into emerency surgery with complications that left me in the hospital for five long days. I shouldn't say that, the surgery didn't keep me long about 3 days. Of course they had to battle a 103.3 fever to get me into surgery first, then made sure it stayed down before releasing me Tuesday afternoon. Well Tuesday night I had to go back when the fever kicked up to 101.7, then 101.3, then 102.9, then hospitalization. No real surprise when the doctor said oh you're sick. Thanks doc, what you just spent another two grand to tell me that? So re-admitted into haspital and I just got out on Friday afternoon. At least I don't have to eat anymore super-greasy foods there anymore. I never been to a hospital where I think the main ingredsiate of all the foods cooked was lard. The irony of it is all is that I couldn't get butter there. They gave me that heart smart spread. OMG, grease dripped off the food, but butter was the no-no? Go figure. Well long story short, I am better, whatever that is. On two anti-biotics, on potassium (which dropped near nothing after surgery) and they great thing is I get pain pills. Now anyone who knows me that pain pills to me are oddly shaped titly-winks. They keep pushing this pills on me and I keep shredding the prescriptions. If America ever wonders why there are so many pill-poppers in this country then look at how we manage pain after surgery or accidents. I choose to tough most pain out, I know when to give, but otherwise I won't do it. But it is so overly-prescribed it is rediculous. Well I really am not up for a rant, still weak from it all, so I will leave it here.
Everyone take care of yourselves. TTFN.
Next info will be on my "mircle." Leave you wondering on that til it is fully finished!
