Day 2: home

Came home from the hospital  about 10:00 last night. Tom and my sister scrambled to get me all set up and ensconced  in the rocking chair. Warm blankets on the feet, ice packs on the face, humidifier next to my head. 

It's about noon now and I think I've been awake for a total of 60mins. I did manage to take a short shower. The steam felt wonderful and I found some random tape left over from the surgery so despite my appearance I was feeling a little better. But I still took another 3hour nap, until the pain killers wore off again and here I am. 
I plan to drink a little milk and fluids now.. Yea nutrition! Then take another nap until it's time to go to the Surgeon's office for my first follow up.
