Howdy Family and Friends,
Welcome to Day 1 of bed rest. So far, it has been a very interesting time. I successfully managed only to get up off the couch one time for the whole entire day. (The above pic is of my very swollen foot!)
It was a dreary day outside today. Cloudy and overcast. Since my night was short due to the pain of surgery and a very swollen foot, I was able to snooze during the morning while the boys watched good ol' Nebraska Television...Sesame Street, Dora, ect.
Day one was definitely a hard day, but thanks to phone calls in the morning from family, chatting on email with my brother in law and the boys to keep me occupied it was ok. My afternoon consisting of Sylva Dixon coming over and sitting with me for an hour and then Betty Dearmont came at 2:00 and was here until 4:30...I ended up taking a pain pill at 2:00 so it was nice to know that the boys were in good hands while I slept.
My friends from both church and work have truly been a blessing to me as they make sure my family is fed. I couldn't do it without them!
Jen McBride, my neighbor down the street came and brought me a can of Diet Mug Rootbeer and read a story to Jacob. Of course I listened...as I drifted off to sleep again.
My foot is still the same size and unfortunately that is not what we want to happen. Continue to pray that the swelling would go down.
