One Week Down

Friday went down hill in a hurry after my late afternoon post. Headed down for my 5:00 treatment and started feeling worse and worse as the trip went on. By the time I got home I had no interest in Dinner and instead crashed.

After a couple of hours I woke up and ate a little soup. Tasted pretty good on the way down. Not so good on the way back up a couple of hours later.

Just to complicate matters, at some point in my napping Friday evening I did something to my LEFT shoulder. I woke up and, obviously, slept on something wrong. But it's hurting like "H" "E" Double Toothpicks and it's numb from the left side of my neck down to my elbow. Why does this have to happen now?

Saturday's been a better day, though. I got my pump removed this morning so that officially wrapped up the first week. The shoulder's still buggin' me but not quite as bad. And other than the shoulder, my stomach and other stuff are feeling much better. Actually made it out on the town a bit this afternoon, ate a real lunch and a real dinner, and stayed up for the whole Mizzou game. Although this would have been a good game to have slept through as it turns out.

Now we'll see how the week off goes. Hopefully since nothing else has gone as I was told it would, my week off won't either and I'll do fine.

Cliff: I hope your "week off" is leaving you feeling better. Make sure you rest and don't try to do too much.
