Day 2 Post Op - 6/3/15

Day 2 was my first day waking at home.  I was pretty swollen.  I spent the majority of the day in bed.  Actually, besides walking a few steps to my bathroom to pee, I was in bed the entire day.  Not much to report.  I took my meds on schedule (including percoset every 6 hours).  I sipped water and maybe some juice.  My mom was here taking care of the kids, and she made mashed potatoes for dinner, so I ate puréed mashed potatoes with chicken broth so it was pretty liquid.  So far meds have all been crushed, mixed with water and taken via oral syringe.  All food/drinks have been via oral syringe or just me sipping from a cup.  I had to use a towel on my chest because otherwise it would be a total mess.  Eating was tiring and frustrating, but I didn't have much of an appetite, so I would have a few sips and give up.  


Here's a photo from day 2:
