Hopefully your sweetie can get some well deserved sleep now. c Boy, you can say that again -- we live about an hour from the hospital. The surgery was about 8 hours. She's back and forth every day. She was really frightened at one point when my name disappeared from the OR board. The love of my life is taking very good care of me. I'm getting crochety about food; Betsy says that's a sign I'm getting better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbb Posted July 29, 2014 #59 Share Posted July 29, 2014 "I'm getting crochety about food; Betsy says that's a sign I'm getting better" ask the doc if Betsy can bring something that you'd enjoy eating--milkshake, brownie? Little something from home can work wonders! I also asked for my mp3 player and earbuds so that i could attempt to drown out the hospital noise and try to get some sleep. Mr Wonderful loaded up the sounds from the ocean for me.....ahhhh. Be sure and tell your sweetie how awesome she is--caretaker needs taking care of as well!

Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 29, 2014 #61 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Wow, the fact that you were able to post from the ICU says something about how well you're doing! No way I could do that. Healing is a slow process, as you well know. Be well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted July 29, 2014 #62 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Don, so happy to hear that you are recovering. I've been away and did not realize what you and Betsy were going through. Praying for a quick recovery. You should be better than new when you go on the world cruise! Also hope that we can meet for lunch again -- somewhere in the world!

hondorner Posted July 31, 2014 Author #67 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Been home for about 12 hours. Feeling crotchety. Glad to be alive. Will take 6 to 12 weeks to return to normal, likely to be still crotchety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypercafe Posted July 31, 2014 #73 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Nice to hear you are home. I am always surprised to see how short hospital stays are. I use TT too and you are right you could file from anyplace with the internet today. I must look again because using it never saved me enough to go on a world cruise!

Sent from my XT1032 using Forums mobile app :cool: My reference to the savings was more a comment on our general miserly ways. We see $400 spent when $75 works as $325 lost. Enough of those situations over 50 years equals a world cruise on little income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypercafe Posted July 31, 2014 #75 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I think I am also frugal, guess I have lots to learn. Glad to hear you are doing great!! Sent from my XT1032 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
