No, I am not!
But to be fair, the info I got on release from the hospital said 4β6 weeks for full recovery and in most ways that matter, I am now fully recovered.
What remains is the area of my chest where the surgery was done is still a bit sensitive to touch/sensation. The incisions are healing, though I’m closer now to fully healed/seeing what kind of cool scars I’ll end up with. I am mostly sleeping normally again, though I tend to keep the bedding off due to the aforementioned sensitivity.
I bought groceries today and didn’t calculate in my head how much everything weighed to make sure I wasn’t over the 10 pound (4.5 kg) limit.
I have 199 intensity minutes this week, all from my usual brisk walking pace. That’s nice.
I’m pretty much back to normal. I’m not always thinking about the surgery or its after-effects. I look forward to my first run (soon).
The daily reports may continue, or they may not. On the one hand, it keeps me posting. On the other, there’s little to report now, and maybe I could start posting more about other things as my mind turns to just living my life more or less normally again.
In the meantime, one (actually, two) more cats.
