The Never-ending Story?

If it ever does end, I’ll reveal the outcome

The last 2 weeks have been nutty. The original back surgery was on August 7th. It went well but I think they let me leave too soon. Just one day instead of 2. I ended up with bacteria in the surgery wound and it wasn’t healing. Pain, dizziness, gross gunk draining out of it. All this was AFTER the surgeon knew about the problem and prescribed antibiotics (giant horse-sized).

Long story short... he told me to come back to the hospital in Alvor last Saturday (Aug 23). That night (9:30pm) he did another surgery to clean out the bacteria.

Today, Sunday, I feel better than I have for a week or more. He told me he plans for me to be here 7 days. Yikes!

Going to take a nap now. Scott’s snoring in the chairby the bed.

So yeah, I was home, feeling progressively WORSE and ended up back in here. I feel I’m getting good care and hopeful of leaving here Friday(tomorrow).

Scott has come faithfully everyday, even though my babies aren’t allowed. He’s brought me things I asked for and even scootered me around today and yesterday in a wheelchair out in the town.

My friend, Celina, came by with this flower.All on his own, Scott even thought to ask if I wanted my pens and coloring books! Im happily coloring away.

Like I said, if this ever ends, you’ll hear all about it.
