10.12.12 Hospital Friday

A person I'm realizing can only blog about so much when in the hospital. The television here is bad, the sleep is good. I like that I can recline and that my feet don't fall asleep. I can stay up late and unless I have a roommate, I don't bother anyone. I can read and read and read. It's a big change from taking care of others to being taken care of, but I don't mind. The pain is a pain, but during my first bout with cancer I learned a lot about pain management and to come out swinging and don't stop until it's out for the count. By this I mean I take my meds before the pain sets in and continue every ___ hours for a day or so then let a little more time go by and a little more and a little more. I don't or try not to blog too much about pain or medicine. Fear that someone's going to break in thinking I have a ton of medicine, but the truth is I also have kids (and a big husband) and I'm hate having kids and medicine around. I don't ever want to abuse my medicine (which won't likely happen cause I don't keep it around). So being in the hospital is okay, cause they can just stick a needle full of happy stuff into my tube thingy, I don't get owies and they leave without leaving anything for anyone to steal/ bribe/ whatever. Okay happy stuff kicking in, love you, love me, love you, love me...
