Days 7 and 8

I can't believe it's already been a week. 7 more weeks on crutches!! 

Day 7

I had physical therapy. This visit mostly consisted of the PT instructor moving my leg around and taking measurements of how much movement I have in my leg. It was relaxing actually because I've been so stiff since the surgery. After PT I had to ice my hip a ton. I got to see Kristina, my boyfriend's mom, and that brightened my day. She is wonderful and it was nice to finally see someone outside of my family. 

I got flowers delivered from Sam's club and my godparents. That made me happy too. Feeding my new fish has been a highlight of my days too! So far the Blue one is my favorite. He watches me like he's making sure I'm getting around okay. It's so cute. 

Day 8 

Today I was left to be independent. Ryne came over for a short amount of time to make sure I had enough ice to last me until my dad came over for lunch. I was able to get up and go to the restroom by myself. My grandparents are here too, but they mainly help me with getting fed. Since the weather has been so cold I've been bundling up and sleeping a lot. Every few hours or so I get up and do some laps around the house. That helps with being stiff and it helps me breathe. Opens up the lungs lol. 

I'm hoping to get in the shower soon and change the dressings again. I'll take a picture of the scope wounds and post them here later. 

I am open to visitors, just send me a text and I'll let you know when is best for me. 

I got my Amazon Fire TV stick today so I can stream Netflix without using my laptop. :) that makes for a happy Natalie. 

I hope the weather gets warmer soon because I would like to see and play with my dogs. 

Stay tuned...
