It's been a week since i had my back surgery, i reckon I can mange a few lines, I have to be stood up to do it as not allowed to sit for some weeks yet, it's been VERY fucking painful, I remember that the last time I said i would never do it again it was so painful, I guess time makes you forget just what real pain is about..
Things I can't do still:
sit for longer than 10-15 mins
dress myself
wash myself (as in shower)
reach anything below waist height
pick up anything heavy
cuddle/play with kids
I am managing to hobble around now, until the muscles in my legs give out due to being used the wrong way
all the drugs I'm on cause constipation so that's been bad too, you've no idea what it's like to miss having a good crap everyday, or put another way, only having one incredibly painful and awkward crap every 2-3 days
must lie down again soon, just doing this as a reminder to self sort of thing - pain has many forms and shapes and can be really bad, short sharp vs long enduring is the key point here, ans as my carer (wife) points out, she gave birth to both our kids by C-section and the scar was way bigger than mine......
