Recovery, Day 2

This was a tough day for Peter. I was with him for 8 hours or more and didn’t see a smile, and as you may know, that is just not Pete’s style. He’s uncomfortable, in pain when the meds wear off, scared to move due to the six-inch incision from bellybutton to breastbone, and probably sick of all of us asking him dumb, rhetorical questions all day. It seems to be a chore for him to speak a sentence, much less eat his jello.

But by the evening he started to get a little better. The highlight of his day was a visit from some of his favorite girls. Molly, Molly, and Carolyn visited from Brainerd and allowed him to forget about feeling sick for a little while.

A CAT scan was postponed until early in the week, so the tests begin tomorrow. That will cause some anxious waiting.
