Recovering

I am home.

Joanna let me borrow the recliner Josh used for his recovery, so I am happily parked here. It is very comfy.

Surprisingly, I woke from anesthesia with basically no nausea and very little pain. I had an overwhelming feeling of relief. I was just so glad the surgery was done and I was ok. Most of my pain was from the intubation. They put some local anesthetic in the wound during my surgery and gave me some IV meds.

We got to leave much sooner than we all thought I would and when I got home, my mother-in-law was making some of her yummy potato soup for me. It is like really smooth glorified mashed potatoes (read: so good and perfect for my throat).

After some Vicodine and food, I am really not that tired. I bet that changes soon.

I will go back to see the surgeon next week and we will discuss the pathology findings then.

Thanks for the prayers! I feel very loved and supported.


Love, Mrs. Janney
