My Journey (7 Days Post Op)

7 days, 1 week out of surgery... so when does the healing start happening?  I am more bruised today than two days ago.  My moods and emotions are everywhere.  I can't control them, and at times I can't even stand me.  I am so sad and heartbroken.  I am still in a lot of pain, even though I am not on my pain pills and haven't been for 5 days.  Yesterday I made my belly button bleed from sneezing.. a simple sneeze.  I am not sure if I tore a stitch or what.  With my last surgery I tore a stitch or two post op in my belly button, that was because I was doing too much.  But I have been too much this time too.  Resting isn't happening too much at all.  So who knows.  I just want to feel normal.  Or at least better.

Say A Prayer

This is so very sad... Jen was a photographer, with two young boys.  She passed away this morning from ovarian cancer.  She was only 37.  Please say a prayer for her family.  My heart hurts for them.

Back to School

Today is the last day of summer break... wait, what?  Summer is over?!?!?  How did that happen?  It seems like it was just May and we were just starting summer break.  Tomorrow morning 3 of my 4 school aged children will start school.  My little Kindergartener doesn't start till Monday, so I get a few extra days with him.  But I know there will be tears on Monday... and possibly tomorrow too.  I am not ready for them to go back to school.  I am not ready for alarm clocks, home work, bedtimes, and everything else that goes along with school.  I hope my little guys have a great year and learn a lot... now to count down to Christmas break!
