castle a surprising adventure

I am sorry it has been over a week since my surgery, but I have not had time to write. I am doing well but having some bad hot flashes. I have had to deal with both grandparents having phnemonia adn my father changing jobs. I was hoping to have the house to myself to heal instead everyone and anyone has been here. I want to say thank you for the thoughts and prayers.

My surgery day came fast my mother and me didnt sleep the night before, then the day of they called and had me come in earlier. I was told the surgery took almost 4hrs instead of the 1 1/2 that was prepared for. I woke up in major pain, I had no reliefe from the pain meds untill late that some night when they placed me on demeral. I had decided to stay in the maturnity ward because there was always a doctor there to help. The nurses there were very sweet there was always at least 3 nureses and throughout my 4 day stay there was only two other patients. I would recommend staying on the mw if you can, you get alot of support from the staff and they are more willing to call for help. I was visited by a friend who drove almost 4hrs to see ms and she spent most of the day, (3days out) I was having pain and she walked with me around the ward and the visiting area. I am doing ok, I have a slight infection and am having some hot flashes and vomiting. I am taking naps as needed but am moving around alot. I hope everyone who has had ther hyster since mine is doing well and I am very thankful to have found this wonderful sight and all of you wonderful women.
Thanks again and God Bless
