The day after

Here I sit, typing away like a mad blogger less than 24 hours post-op. This time around was really a piece of cake comparing to the first time. I am not as groggy, nauseous or out of balance and the pain is very tolerable. Even got a good night’s sleep. I am sure Steph’s world famous home made chicken soup had something to do with it. I even feel like going to the gym and maybe doing a run afterwards….but that prolly not a good idea! The bandage comes off later so stay tuned to the clock as it ticks down to the 2/15 activation date.

And thank you to the loving wife Steph, Mike and Dan, all of my family, friends, fans and well-wishers!

    You sport the cochlear bra quite well πŸ™‚ Glad to see you came through with FLYING colors πŸ™‚ You don’t even look like you had surgery!!

    Does it hurt?
    Do you have tinnitus?
    Are you dizzy?

    I’m glad that you’re up and feeling good today! I stayed in bed for the entire first week after my surgery…lazy me!
    I agree with Abbie…you don’t even look like you had surgery. And I, too, want to hear the details…when you’re up to it! πŸ™‚ Take care!
