My incisions itch so bad today and late last night that I think that I am going to loose my mind. I try to very lightly rub them and then they just ache; so I am trying to leave them alone all together. I am concerned that some of my tapes are already about to come off and they told me that they wouldn’t for two to three weeks. So I need to call the surgeons office and ask about that. I am most concerned about the drainage hole incision because that one never had an staples or anything; it was an open wound with tape on it when I came home from the hospital and besides that It has been draining.
I was bad again last night I went down stairs and slept in my bed for a little while with my hubby; I need to be close to him. It is hard because it has been a week since surgery and I just need his touch; even if it is just holding my hand I have felt apart from him this past week. He would call me in the hospital just to talk to me; to see how I was doing and to tell me that he loved me.
I think that this hasn’t been as hard on him; but it has taken its toll. He seems very protective, well I don’t know if I would say protective of me but he just seems to be a little more aware of me and things that I am doing and not letting me over do anything. I love him and I know that he loves me, and I know that this surgery is the best thing that I could have ever done for my self; but it has been hard. I am so glad that I have him beside me holding my hand and encouraging me through this because I don’t think that I make it with out him right now. I love him more than I think he is aware of and I hope that he realizes that. He is my world.
Well I am going to cut this one short today; I get to leave the house! YEAH!!!!!! I haven’t been out since Sunday and that wasn’t a pleasant journey; I didn’t feel well and I was freezing my butt off. I am looking forward to Easter shopping with my sister, and getting my walking in for the day.
I will post again tomorrow; and thank you all for reading my blog; I know that at times they might seem tedious and repetitive but hopefully once I can start weighing there will be more exciting things to say. Right now the transition period is just rather difficult and I am so glad that I have Jackie to share these feeling with; because at one time she went through the same things, and felt the same way and it makes me happy to know that I am not the only one to go through this. Well so much for keeping it short. I love you all and thank you again for all the love, support and prayers that you have sent my way. God Bless you all, you are angels.

Have fun shopping! But don't over do it.
Party time! Ok so when I had my appendix out my tape came off after a week and they said that was normal as long as your wounds are good but you should ask about the drain wound I think you are doing great. just be aware of you body and watch for signs...itching means it is healing well. I learmn if you go on either side of it and itched there it workd with out toughing it and you get relief!
have fun shopping with sarah...tell her I lover her...oh and thank your hubby for blogging and keeping us up to date it was nice to be able to know how you were!
