Nice to be Home
As lovely as all the nurses were to me, there's nothing like sleeping in your own bed. Taco Belle was awfully glad to see Mom, and gave me a nice, wet welcome home. She hasn't left my side since.
The procedure was interesting. I think I must be getting over my needle phobia, because the second day that he did it, I actually watched the blood being drawn out of my hand. I've never been able to do that before without fainting. Of course, it could have been the effects of the sedative.
The headaches are down to nearly nothing, and I'm taking it really easy for a few days. I can't lift anything over about 5 lbs. for the next three weeks. They've put me on some new medication, called Neurontin. My mom calls is "New Rotten" and says it's appropriate since I was such a rotten kid...*grin*.
