Day four post surgery, and I'm still feeling terrible although I've barely even left the bed. But it was a nice day, so I thought maybe I could manage getting outside for a few minutes. Pat drove me to my studio, where I worked for about 30 minutes, then we drove to Tokyo Joe's to pick up some lunch to go. By the time we got there I was exhausted again -- so here's the view from the passenger seat, which is about all I could muster.
About ten or twelve years ago I had some fairly major abdominal surgery, something called a Nissen fundoplication, and for weeks afterward I was weak and miserable. In fact it was months before I felt even close to normal again. I figured that having my gallbladder removed wasn't as dire by comparison, but this post-op feeling sure feels much the same. I hope my convalescence goes much more quickly. I can't afford to be sidelined for much longer.
