Hi Friends!
I feel AWESOME today. Still no poop, but it's okay. I moved to our bed last night and got in and out of it all by myself. I walked around half a block. I have NO PAIN AT ALL, only some uncomfortableness. Absolutely amazing!
My media friend sent me the still pic of my kidney, which looks better than the black and white one even if it's a little bloody. Our kidneys are small. Incredible what such a small organ does for us! The last of the surgeries is today, probably underway right now. I hope that it goes well!
Cullen is doing awesome. He has been very, very helpful. I know he has wanted to help me more than I have let him, but it's just easier to get up and down by myself. He has been a godsend though, and I'm so thankful!
The kids have been total rockstars too. Julia is dying for a real hug, but doing awesome smooching my arm, hand, face, whatever else is nearby instead. She said, when I came and sat down by myself "I'm so proud of you for doing that all by yourself!" and they all notice when I'm doing well. "You're walking faster today, Mom!" It's so sweet. Today CJ said "Mom, you SHOULD be on the news! " I think that he just understood how 5 people got kidneys. Josh is the detail man and he had it nailed as soon as I drew it out for him.
They are all at their yearly checkups right now. I can't remember them going last year, so it's possible that they just didn't! If that isn't stellar parenting, what is???
Oh, poop, darling poop, don't be afraid. Come on out. Don't make me push. (Miralax is pretty decent stuff!).
I WISH I MAY, I WISH I MIGHT, FINALLY GET A GOOD POO BY TONIGHT!
