work

[lynne b]

well i have been back to work for 2 weeks now since my surgery and i am exhausted....i need a vacation!!!!. I am suppose to be on light duty, no lifting over 10lbs but i am finding out there is no such thing anymore, i am doing most of my own lifting, there is one girl that helps me when she can but she is having surgery in another week so i will help her when she gets back to work. I have a follow up app. this Friday and i will see what the Dr wants to do about it. It's not that i can't do it but by the end of the day i am wiped out. I lost all of my muscle tone and i know i have to work to get it back, i am still only at 90lbs even though i am eating more.

I am only going to see mom on the weekends now but she is doing really good at the AL, she gets out so much more, they went to a place called Conner Prairie in Indy where they show how it was to live back in the pioneer days, and they even got to go up in a hot air balloon, " can you believe that Gayle" it was just one that just went straight up and then back down they didn't get to fly around anywhere but i was so suprised that mom would do something like that, she has come so far in the year since she had her surgery and ended up in the NH. Sometimes someone will mention things like coming to see her when she was at the NH and she will ask me about it and she dosen't remember it, i haven't told her about all the bad times she went through, the delusions(sp) and stuff. I just want her to remember the good things she is doing now.
