I thought I would make a post to show everyone where I have been "living" for the past two weeks.
It's basically a the same idea as a hospital bed, there are four pieces of wood behind my back that help support me and some back pillows, then we have some body pillows that I lay on. It looks wonderful and comfortable but after two weeks it's like laying on cement.
Other than that today is the first day alone since the surgery, Rachel has taken the past two weeks off of both (yes two) jobs, and her family has been here on and off as well. You don't realize how much you miss the help until it's gone. It's freeing but also somewhat scary, I keep thinking what if I fall (insert joke here) or what if the dogs get to wild and jump on me. But it's been a successful morning and I managed to make it through without any issues. I'm excited that tomorrow means I'm officially two weeks post op. I'm getting better and better each day but have to remind myself not to push it, that I did have a major surgery and I need to take it easy. Last night I tried cooking steak for dinner and I managed to get it done but I learned that I wont be cooking again until I'm off crutches. Until that time you know where I'll be here at home on my bed.
