Hi, all!
.
.
First off, all the well-wishes, vibes, love, thoughts, etc have been unbelievably wonderful.
.
.
You have helped me move MUCH easier over some of the more FUCKFUCKFUCK rocky terrain of
the past week. There HAVE been painful moments -- thankfully short, if not sweet... and what
has often gotten me through them is thinking about the folks on this site.
.
.
It's getting better every day. Lifting myself out from a flat supine position on the bed (yes,
the head of the bed can be powered up, but I'm working on the conditions I'll have to face at
home) and coughing are my two worst enemies.
.
.
I have what's called a "hug pillow". About 14" across and heart-shaped (Valentine's... not
anatomically correct). I hug it to my chest TIGHTLY when I cough and it diffuses the movement
of my muscles and bone that are trying to knit together to a wider surface area -- GREATLY
diminishing the pain.
.
I thought I lost it once and was near panic. At this point, it's my Bestest-Friend-For-Fucking-EVER!!!
.
alphafemale is making me a spare. How SWEET is that? I've been telling people at the Rehab
Hospital here about it and they get all "AWWWWW"... but when I tell them what I think is one
of its cooler features they start laughing. It's going to be made of crushed red velvet and
I'm going to forever refer to it as "My Pimp Pillow".
.
"OWWIE-OWWIE-OWWIE-OWWIE-WHOSYERDADDY-OWWIE-OWWIE-OWWIE!!!!"
.
I'm missing some of your MFM allusion posts and pictures (and catching some, too). Please don't
consider that to be personal. I tire easy, I'm on a kinda user-unfriendly system, and the sheer
volume of material is overwhelming in so many ways.
.
I think I'm seeing and appreciating and laughing with MOST of it... but just don't feel on top
of my game enough yet to post on/respond to them all.
.
Again, special thanks to Kali and CaliforniaPeggy for keeping you in touch with me and vice versa.
.
.
I don't want to start listing people that I have appreciated over the last week as I'll forget
one/some/hell... MANY... and I don't want to hurt any of you who have been so nice.
.
.
.
Tomorrow is the big weekly "All-Discipline Meeting" (no, Amerigo -- they don't "take my medical
history" while dressed in black leather catsuits and doing unspeakably wonderful things with hot
melted wax).
.
.
.
.
.
Darn the luck!!!!
.
.
.
.
Everyone involved in my treatment and physical rehab will be involved in a big roundtable meeting
and discuss my progress and my potential release to home. I want to go home... but not so soon
that it'll end up having been TOO soon. I've been healing up pretty well, but still have some really
serious pragmatic daily living issues to work on.
.
.
.
More to come after that meeting -- maybe tomorrow night or Thursday.
.

The nurses here are REMARKABLY strong and dedicated and have managed (yes, just BARELY... but just
barely is good enough) to keep their hands off me except in a professional manner.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
For the most part.
.
.
.
.

.
.
After all... NOBODY'S perfect.
