Summer is coming!

Jun 08, 2013 14:31

 It's been a nice week in my neck of the cyber-woods.  We've had great weather, sunny and with highs in the mid 70sf/ mid 20sC.  Great weather to sit in my tiny back "yard" in a comfy lounge with a good book.  This is unusually summery weather for the PNW.  We rarely get this much sun so early in the summer!

My incision dehiscence has increased.From a couple spots of maybe an inch and a half to one big opening maybe 2/3 of the whole thing; so maybe 5 inches.  It's apparently healing as expected though I have to say not nearly as quickly as I'd prefer.  I have to change the dressings several times a day.  It still creeps me out to look down and see muscle tissue.  Gah!  The doctors are saying "6 to 8 weeks" now for it to heal.

I did feel well enough today to go out for lunch with my mom.  We went to a favorite local place of mine and ate sitting outside.  It really wiped me out, but it was nice to actually leave my house for a bit!
