I felt pretty darn productive today. I woke up fairly early for the first time since surgery. When I got out of bed I felt much less stiff than I had previously felt. Aaron went to his last Saturday class of the semester - yay! While he was in class I made some pumpkin bread and pumpkin muffins. Here is a picture of them.
How very domestic of me. Ok, I'll fess up, I had a little help -
Today was the first day that we changed the dressings on my incisions. Aaron did a great job of putting me back together. **GROSS OUT ALERT** Here are some pretty pictures of my incisions. This first one is of my back around T11/T12. No stitches, just Steri-Strips.
This next picture is of the pocket they made on the right side of my lower back where the battery lives. There is some nasty bruising going on there. Again, no stitches, just Steri-Strips and some glue. Ah, modern medicine.
Aaron got me put back together picture perfect!
I also drove around a bit for the first time today. I went to Zona Rosa to try to finish some Christmas shopping. I don't know what possessed me to go there 8 days before Christmas but there you have it. Anyway, not much to report here so I'll leave it at that. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
