Keeping it short and simple.
I had a good day. All my tests results are good so far. My pain is under control and I did two walks. The second walk this afternoon went really well - probably bc i had the best support group my mom, dad, bro, sisinlaw and of course my nephew Everett. It meant so much to get to see him! I felt good on my walk and walked much further than anyone expected.
I can't eat or drink anything so I'm starving. I'm hoping they will let me eat a little tmrw after another test. They started my feeding tube this afternoon but they are running it so slowly it hardly adds anything. But everything is going in the right direction so I'm very very very happy.
Maybe I will get out of ICU tmrw. That would be nice. A quieter room.
Ok that's its. Pain meds make me groggy. Thanks again for all the support! I'm surrounded by wonderful caring people!!

Gigi, I totally remember being starving and parched. That first ice chip is so nice. I am so proud of you for walking like a champ. You'll be in step down in no time. Keep up the awesome work.

I second Tricia's comment. Once they get your tf rate up, you'll feel better. I honestly didn't feel hungry, just thirsty. Good luck on you tests! We are cheering for ya! I have my Nissen on Wed, so I'll find you on the 3rd floor. Keep your head high and proud .... You are doing great!
