Hello! This is going to be real short and sweet. I am home from the hosp. Came home sunday (yesterday). I do have to say my stay was not to great lol! It began kinda sucky since they couldn't find a vein in my arm to do the iv in. I was poked 5 times before they finally found one to use. My arm is black and blue from that. Then when i came out of surgery my iv was in a different place for some reason. They didn't tell me why. Found out a day later it wasn't even going in my vein just basically filling my arm up with fluids. My hand became numb and it stung. I kept telling them there was something wrong. They couldn't figure out why I wasn't going to the bathroom enough and decided I needed to have a sono of my bladder. That was not fun at all. I have 6 incisions on my stomach. Your bladder is down by your pelvis and just happened to be right where my c-section scar is. It doesn't feel good to push this plastic thing into the scar to find ur bladder let me tell ya. I almost cried. They were also pushing on my stomach where my incisions were. Needless to say I was not a happy camper. SO when they finally listened to me about the iv they took it out and decided to put it in the other arm. I told her she had one chance if she didn't get it I wasn't going to be poked again. She claimed she got it but about 5 hours later my hand was stinging and became numb and swollen. Thank god it was a different nurse and she took it out all together. Soooo now my arms hurt very badly. I'm trying to get back in to the swing of things but I think its gonna take longer then I expected. I was thinking of starting a blog just for this journey I am taking...I didn't know if i wanted to clutter up this blog with all my personal issues when a lot of the ppl who come by don't really wanna know about it lol! So leave me a comment and tell me what you think.
I want to thank you all for your well wishes! It means a lot to me. I'm not gonna lie I was very scared. I have mixed feelings right now about this choice I have made but I know in a few weeks when I feel better and can eat something other then broth and water Ill feel differently.
I will hopefully be returning tmw to post my rvk layouts because I started them before i left for surgery and didn't finish them. I thought i would finish them when I came home but man that has been difficult. So I will leave you with the
scrap for a cure layouts. That kit was fabulous and if you didn't get your hands on it you really need to sign up for a sub lol!
I promise i will be catching up on blogs soon. Hopefully within the next couple days! xoxoxo

Marie...I'm so glad you are home safely and hopefully on the mend. That surgery sounds VERY scarey. You are so brave for choosing to do it. I hope you continue to tell us how you are doing and I don't mind at all if you talk about it on this blog. Everyone should be care about you as well as come by to see all of your talent! Hope your arms feel better soon. I am right there with ya...I always said it was more painful getting those iv's put in than giving birth!! They always screwed up with me, too!! Feel better!
So sorry they messed up with your iv so many times. I would have smacked them upside the head. I think its fine to post it here. Doesn't bother me. Beautiful layouts. I couldn't stop thinking about you this whole weekend!
