As of today, I've been out of the hospital for one week. Were it not for the catheter and the surgical staples still in my incisions, you--not to mention I--would be hard-pressed to recognize I'd been in hospital at all. There is nothing about the way I look or move to say that I am in still in recovery from having an organ removed.
But of course, I am. Though the amount of what I do increases daily--last night, I grilled outside, for instance--I am still careful not to overdo anything. I am continuing to limit what I carry in terms of weight and I try not to hurry in the course of doing anything. I can honestly say I haven't run (or even "fast-walked") to anything in the past seven days.
If all goes well, the catheter and staples will be gone by mid-day Wednesday, after which I can return to driving.
