so i just had an after thought of something i wanted to share
clearly for my surgery i was given general anesthesia and put to sleep
but as i think about that-its kinda scary..its scary how one minute you are getting wheeled down the hallway on the bed and then they have you slide over to the next table next thing the the anesthesia guy is telling me something is going to sting a bit while his assistant is putting a mask on and telling me to take two deep breaths and yet that's all i can remember and then i am waking up like two hours later in recovery..
thats crazy if you think about it-the power of drugs-the ability to send me to another state of rest and mental absence while they work
and i just realized i had a chest tube-i remember her laying that on my chest when i first got in the room but my last thought was seeing him pushing more drugs in my iv and then the mask
and then i woke up and wanted Ray-im glad its over and thus far the pain has not been the worst as he described it and i hope it just continues to get better-not talking much but im not in a state of complete misery.
and i have purposely avoided my favorite channel FOOD NETWORK-i will not let my tv mom Paula Deen bring me down today-I plan to eat accordingly until I properly heal and so i can prevent pulling off the scab and having bleeding in my throat (SORRY FOR THAT NASTY DESCRIPTION)
but i did manage today to scarf down 2 applesauce cups and tomorrow hopefully i can get some Ben and Jerry's- i was on their website today looking at ALL their wonderful flavors-hmmmm
my whole little body aches-but i know now i wont have any more sore throats and allegedly i'll never snore so WE'LL see!!!!
