Tidy

I am ignoring the fact that my belly is blown up like a balloon, to be expected really, but I am impressed with the neatness that my wound sites have revealed when the dressing came off. You do not need to see the other one...it's too low down!

Today I am sore.

Today I have had to remind myself that I had surgery yesterday and if I don't take my pain relief then it hurts like hell. I am also having to learn that I have to let Corin and James look after me. It is counter intuitive. I am the person who looks after others. I do not like being on the receiving end.

I am not a good patient.

Everybody being very supportive and kind. I appreciate it and I know that when the next surgery happens in a few weeks time, it is going to be far more invasive and therefore my recovery will be tougher, so I a, grateful to know that there are so many people around me who care.
