Recovery

Ok Girls.,
You all know I had surgery on Oct 15. I got home on the 17. With a Catheter.
YUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. Anyway. The next friday after I got home I got to take
the catheter out and then I went to my doctor. I was not able to go potty by myself so they showed me how to cath myself every 3 hours. It was a pain in the
you know what. I went back to the Dr yesterday still not able to go. She told me I needed to start drinking more. I'm not a big water fan.....But I am making myself do it. As of this morning I have started going by myself 50cc's at a time.
Which is a wonderful thing. I will never complain again about having to go to the bathroom. I just hope my output becomes more so that i can void it all out of my bladder. I go back to my doctor again next week. I can drive now but just to
town and back. I am still on a 5 pound weight limit for at least 3 months. So I praise God for hearing my prayers and for him hearing yours.
Thanks for reading.

That all seems like great news Linda!!! Just keep drinking that water...who knows maybe you'll develop a taste for it. I don't like our well water, so I buy Ice Mountain bottled water.

Now you get to peeing girlfriend....LOLOL

You poor thing! I had to go home with a catheter after I had Jessie, for about 10 days. I had lots of company with the catheter bag in a bucket next to me because it developed a leak.

I'm praying for you!
