I’m feeling so much better today, no fever or pain. I am still incredibly tired. I feel like I back tracked a little on recovery.
I slept all day and Sven and Sergio supportef me by sleeping all day as well. And yes they sleep on a satin pillowcase. It keeps their fur nice so they don’t have to do much with it in the morning.
I’m going to start changing up the titles of my posts since its hard to keep track of which day post surgery it is.
Today I felt worse and was running a fever. My doctor wanted us to go to the ER just to be safe. After blood and urine tests and hours and hours of waiting around, they diagnosed me with a urinary tract infection and sent us home with antibiotics.
It sucked being there so long but I am glad we went. Jeff said later that he was starting to wonder if we should go because I just didn’t feel well. I was also able to have them remove the two surgical staples that the missed removing at UCSF.
I took my first antibiotic so hopefully will be a lot better tomorrow.
Today was a busy day. We started a walk here and I was able to walk 6100 steps. After we went out for coffee. Then after a long nap we went to our friends Alberto and Gloria’s house. The plan was games and go out to dinner.
After 3 hours of playing Mexican Train and Sequence I could barely keep my eyes open. So we went home and skipped going out to dinner.
Today kind of sucked for me. I had stomach issues that normally wouldn’t be that bad. But with my insides still sore for surgery, gas bubbles we’re painful. But 12 hours later I’m a lot better. I was even hungry for Indian takeout for dinner.
Sven and Sergio have been helping me with my oragami.from left to right we have a dinosaur, elephant, dog, and duck.
They told me that they were going to make me an oragami sloth. But after twenty minutes I found them like this.
They told me they didn’t say sloth but sloth food. They tried to convince me they eat square orange leaves in the wild.
Today our water was out from 9am -4pm. This happened a lot in our old building and cause me to panic. But now that we get watee delivery we were stocked up. We also realized is weer needed to flush a toilet (we didn’t) we could use the water that is in our dehumidifier. It’s funny to think with the dehumidifier you can “make” water from the air.
We also went to Panama Costco today and I made it around the entire store without sitting down and resting. That is a big milestone for me.
Today I went to my doctor’s office to fet a blood test. It was a checkup to see how I’m recovering. It was nice to go only for that and not chemo.
Today I’m showing off my University of Wisconsin shirt given to me by my friend and fellow alum Robin. I wish I had a bag of cheese curds to eat while wearing it.
I went back in the pool today walks actually swam a bit. I did a very small amount of breast stroke. It wasn’t much but I feel like a swam the Panama Canal.
Jeff and I went out to lunch. I was like a little kid and had then hide boiled egg in my salad. It was a win for the egg aversion therapy. I may be able to eat boiled eggs. I see deviled eggs in my future.
It was a beautiful morning. It clouded up but was so gorgeous this morning.
Yesterday I had problems with updating my blog. I contacted tech support (Jeff) but he said it was after hours on a Sunday.
Yesterday while we went on a long walk, Sven and Sergio got busy doing oragami. I have a kit that provides the paper and intructions. When we left they seemed to know what they were doing.
By the time we for home they had not gotten too far.
