Hanging on

I'm still here, just stuck!
Thank you bloggettes for your well wishes. I am hanging on. Its been a little more difficult of a recovery than I expected.
While I was in the recovery room the nurse kept saying to me,"You've got to breathe!"

Oh, I guess I forgot to do that, lol!

Apparently I was given Fentanyl along with the anesthesia. Ive never heard of it but my nurse said its very, very strong and it was causing me to have a extremely slow and shallow breathing.
All in all I'm ok~ just waiting for all the junk to get out of my system and then Im sure I will be back to my typical, hectic and sometimes crazy life!

This laying in bed is for the birds! So boring!

Thanks again for visiting me.

~Hugs to all of you~

Oh my! I didn't even know about you "going under!" I've been to busy moving to visit!

Yeah, breathing is important. :)
Once when I surgery, I came to before they were done! Yikes! ♥

Feel better soon!!! I know it stinks not being able to do your normal! Funny how good laying in bed sounds until you have no choice!
Happy wishes of fun things to do while you heal!
Hugs, Lisa
