Parotidectomy

 I had my surgery on the 16th and spent one night in the hospital.  It's the 23rd now and the incision is infected,  started antibiotics yesterday and feel better today. This has been a gruesome recovery!! I never want to do anything like this again! The pain has been unbelievable but I think a lot of that is because it got infected.  The drain was removed on the 23rd, that was fun! and it is leaking now because it's infected. Pretty gross!

I really wish I hadn't scheduled the surgery when school was starting - that made everything a lot harder.  It feels like I've been on the run ever since I got out of surgery. No rest. 

I gotta quiet about this somewhere. 

Jami was arrested and Dave and I went to her hearing right after my surgery so I had that drain tube coming out of the side of my neck.  We were sitting in the waiting area outside the court room and everyone was trying to not state at my drain tube full of blood.  Dave started craving jokes,  I wish I could remember them!! All about how every one was wishing they had a sexy drain tube like mine. I couldn't stop laughing because he wouldn't do popping off with different jokes about it.  He was just amazing.  I was still in treatung pain and scared we wouldn't get Jami out of jail but for that time waiting for court I felt no pain or worry. And then we went in and won Jami's freedom and sitting behind her with my sexy drain tube definitely helped her case!!!! 

Thank you Dave❣️
