Today was much better. I still feel a little foggy or slow but I have double the energy I had yesterday which is about half of what I hope to have. There was far more trips to the bathroom today than the first two days. This was to be expected but is not unbearable. Just don't let one loose unless you are 100% sure it is safe. You could be leaking down your leg before you know it. Gross, but true.
For months now I have had this lump below my zyphoid process (the bone at the base of your sternum in the center of your chest, where you press to do CPR) and it is feeling as though my surgical hernia was back, swollen, tender, etc. I noticed today however that the lump was gone; this is good news.
We are staying at a friend's house and he has some other guests here as well; they had lasagna and bread and one of them had lobster! All of it smelled great, the bread was probably the biggest temptation.
Trudy and I have talked at length about what we miss and we agree that chewing is a big part. We find it hard to believe that we have not chewed a single food item since Sunday evening.
