Day 9: Post-op day 1

David is recovering at home today.  He's feeling a lot better than yesterday and moving around pretty well.  Even though I worked on a surgical unit for over a year in my floor nursing days, I seem to be only half a nurse when it comes to family.  It's just hard seeing someone you love in pain.  I got dizzy and nauseated this morning when I thought back to yesterday and how out of it David was.  I could barely stand up when his post-op nurse showed me his surgical site.  And it's nothing!  How embarrassing!  I'm so glad he's starting to look and feel like himself again and I'm praying we don't have any more surgeries in front of us. 
Max knows something is up, so he's been hanging on to me for dear life.  I finally had to strap him into our new Ergo carrier just to get through the morning.  Thank goodness he loves it.  He just giggles non-stop when he's on my back.  Here we are after delivering David's lunch.
