Heading home

 0414

It`s our 38th wedding anniversary today!

The only negative part of being in the hospital, based on what I thought I heard was this - I was moved from a private to semi-private room. My neighbour was a bit senile and quite often didn't know where he was, so I didn't have a lot of interaction with him. What I thought I heard was that he had tested positive for covid on the way out. This wasn't discussed with me, I just had to overhear it (of course, I may have gotten all this wrong).

I was picked up by a new very good friend Wes and we went to his house where Judi and a great meal awaited me.

I could finally get some real sleep, so I slept all night, then from 730 until about 10am cat-napped, raced for a bit, then fell asleep playing a game with Judi, took a nap from about 2pm till 630pm, then went to bed early. I just don't seem to be able to sleep in the hospital, but once I got home I started making up for it.

Easter Sunday

He is risen indeed!

Not quite ready for a big crowd yet, so we watched the online services. The kids came over and we had a meal together.

I've been having some discomfort near the battery pack, and I'm taking Tylenol 3's for pain from the freezing in my head (still frozen - this could take quite a while to come out).

Just need to take it easy now until the stitches dissolve and the incisions are completely healed.

I have been able to reduce my meds, and I'm looking forward to a further reduction when programming starts.
