Tough Night

Had a tough night, as much due to reaction to painkillers as to the surgery itself.

I was up every 3 hours or so. Had difficulty passing urine. Face has been swollen all day.

Finally got back to sleep and felt better, but still lightheaded and nauseous. Had hot sweats when I walked from the bedroom to the bathroom, what, four feet?

Ron was a good attendant, brought ice packs and water, made coffee. Later on he gave me a bowl of oatmeal to help settle my stomach.

This afternoon, I was well enough to walk outside and get the mail and a couple of Halloween decorations.

Ron did laundry. I was able to fold and put away mine.

Warm outside today, rained a little last night and this morning.

Halloween was disappointing, only 52 kids, probably because of the rain.
