Day 2 home sweet home


So day 2  after the first nite I was allowed to make my way to the toilet. I had the gown on and then I had two bags for the two drains (4 in total) each side....it was rather strange as the drains were sawn into my side...and they were pulling....! By mid day I had seen my consultant who said I could go home but I panicked and said I would rather stay....only 5 mins later when I managed to get washed and cleaned and stand on my feet asking Bethany the nurse to see if I could go home indeed.
The thought of that hospital bed and the winging on the old ladies and seeing how hot and crazy was there at visiting time....I wanted out. Just like that my wish was granted and I was able to see the SPEC nurse and then discharged. I came home with Jonathan and mum after visiting time that was Monday 17th around 5:30pm. The ride home with the two bags and the drains and sitting in the car was a bit much but it was ok....I was in my own bed...washed and ready for sleeps after seeing all the presents and flowers and cards for those very special people.  I slept rather well with 6 pillows and almost upright. I was looking forward to day 3 when SPEC nurse was coming to renew my horrible drains. (see picture above this was taken after nurse removed the drains).
