I wanted to let you all know that I was discharged this afternoon from Spectrum. They removed my PGJ tube at 8am. They removed my PICC line a little later, so slowly I was getting rid of all the extra tubes from my body. It felt great. I am still quite painful. They explain it to me that all my body has been through, it is just not going to react to the pain meds like it used to. I feels good to be able to eat again, even though things don't taste quite the same. I'm sure that will change with time.
Thanks for all the prayers. This time when the Dr. said I would be there 5-7 days after surgery, it came true.........
Great news Debra! Take it easy and I am sure with some home cooking things will taste better. Sounds like you have another storm to deal with....Baby Lucy came home today also, hopefully Ramona will join us soon.
