Here is a picture of my Doppler Machine. There are 2 machines. I feel like I am in a Science Fiction setting.
I am being released to day. So excited to be going home. Dr Habash said everything is going great. I am having some burning during urination so I am starting an antibiotic for that.
Some suggestions for the Hospital. A micro bead neck roll works wonderful for sitting in a chair and even sleeping. Since I have to sleep in such and inclined position it kept my head from slipping sideways and waking me up.
I had a Lanyard from work and attached a Velcro holder to it and it worked great for all of my tubes and wires that needed to be unhooked when ever I needed to get up. I rolled up the wires and the drains and wrapped the Velcro around them and was able to have them just hang and be out of the way.
I used the “Pink Pocket” that I attached to the inside of my shirt to actually put the JP drain bulb into which worked great also.
I was able to completely get dressed by myself also. Since my shirt was stretchy at the top, I was able to pull it up instead of it going over my head.
For the ride hope Travis brought me a pillow to put over my chest and tummy to protect the incisions from the seat belt. It will be nice to be in my own home to finish this recovery.
Now for the graphic pictures. Please just scroll back up to the top for the next day’s entry and do not look if these type of pictures bother you. The incisions do not hurt and I am not on any pain killers except for Tylenol now.
