Back home and officially on the ups and ups-ies! I've already maxed out my CPM machine and am anxious to start physical therapy (not for 8 more days, grrrr). No nasty pain killers since Tuesday night and the pain is nearly nonexistent with ibuprofen and my ice machine.
I would not have made it through another stupid surgery without my crazy FRB-er friends. Thanks to Fritz for being there during my surgery and keeping my ice machine fully loaded and the Lortabs coming the first night. Thanks to Andrea for talking me through my anti-nausea patch removal hallucinating stupor, for force feeds, and for letting Frank do laps around her living room even though she hates her :) Thanks to Jake for providing endless running banter and STOKE and I am especially thankful to Allie for yet again providing me with booze-laden gelato. I have the best friends!
