July,
I was overjoyed to see your post!! Yahoo for you, I mean the not having to take any pain meds! I'm so glad to hear you're doing well!!
As for me, no complaints! My legs don't hurt at all anymore, amen!!! My arm continues to have some problems but very reasonable and do-able! I think my throat is going to make a full recovery. It's a bit too soon to tell, but it definitely feels different. I don't feel the pressure on it like before. The collar is...well it's a collar...what can I say? It doesn't really go with any of my shoes or outfits, but it's definitely a center piece! HA!HA!
OK, what's the deal with my sleep? I think because my body is used to being very active, laying in bed all day and being a professional coach potato is not helping me sleep. My family goes to bed and I try to sleep, too. Hour after hour, I stare at my ceiling wondering how my friend July is doing and how great an ice cream sundae would be at 2:00a.m. I've tried watching TV, but that keeps me up longer, so I don't do that anymore. Baths help! But it's a tough balancing act; going to bed at a decent time and waking up before breakfast is over!! This too shall pass!
I'm still in some pain. But because I've been in pain for so long, it's probably worse than I give it credit! One of my girlfriends is a nurse and she is constantly telling me not to push myself too hard because I'm so used to pain that my tolerance is high!!
OK, my neck is screaming at me, gotta go! I truly am happy for you!! Keep yourself on the mend and don't overdue it. Here's a novel concept...ASK FOR HELP!!! Don't do everything yourself...He-woman!!!
luvs and blessings,
Erin
