4 Days Post-Op - Going Home!

4 Days Post-Op has been the best. I was woken up at 5am to get blood drawn. Besides that, there were no more needles at all today. IV and Drain came out the day before, so I was unattached to the hospital the days before I was released. I kept trying to go back to sleep because I wanted time to pass by faster but I kept having nurses and techs and nutritionists and physical therapists and hematologists and respiratory come in.  At about 9am, my surgeon came in and discharged me! The I had to wait about 3 hours for them to get all their ducks in a row before I could call Brian to come pick me up. I left at noon. 

When I got home, the first thing I wanted to do was brush my hair. I brushed out the 4 day old knot and took the best shower. Nothing stung or burned or anything. 

Originally, the plan was to come home Wednesday and go to work on Friday for the grand opening of my office. Since I didn't get discharged until noon Friday, after I took a shower at home, I had my husband drive me to work 2-5. It wasn't too bad! I will probably work tomorrow 9-1 then start full time Tuesday after the 4th of July. 

We were also going to go to my in-laws lake house like we always do for the fourth (and other holidays) but since I want to chill, I decided not to go. 

All in all, looks good, feels good.
