Minor Setback

Eric's body got tired of him doing doctor approved things like walking, so it decided to throw him a curve ball called pain management.


His surgeon said you can't over do with walking, but the nurse said you probably can. To me, Eric has not overdone it with activities and I'm a strict nurse, but his nerve endings think otherwise. All internally around his torso, those nerve endings that were cut and numbed from all the drugs are waking up and making him pay. Since Monday night, he's been in a lot of pain, so much where he can't lay down at all. I feel so bad that he's confined to an oversize chair for 24 hours a day. This is the downside of recovery. He's ready for the upside again. Meanwhile Netflix and Xbox are his best friends.
