Defenestrate

I got to see Candace tonight. She is such a beautiful woman. After talking with her, I think reality is setting in. I was unable to work this week. Sigh. And then some people in the hall started yelling and it freaked me out. I so need quite right now. At least my Dr. wrote a good prescription for pain. I can have my ‘happy juice’ every two hours. It is something like ‘dilotted’? It knocks me out. My eye is healing, yet it is still blood red. They had to change my IV cathera because it came out of my vein.

So I am on my third day at the hospital. This morning I finally was able to poop! Now some people know that I have a hard time going to the bathroom at other people’s home. I thought this would change at a hospital … nope. So I’m waiting to be examined to see if I can go home. Although I really wanted the Dr. who did my surgery to look at my eye before I go home.

Yesterday was miraculous. Got stabbed in the eye area by a jagged vampire stake-looking thing. Went to ER. No pain meds before eye specialist showed for four hours. He did a prelimary exam. Found that eye had not been popped. I got into surgery at 6 PM. (Injury happened at 9:20) The eye doctor removed a four centimeter long x one centimeter diameter piece of wood– of which 3.5 centimeters was under my skin. Here’s the really awesome thing. It didn’t Pierce my eye. In fact, it didn’t hit a nerve or muscle. Dr. told Matthew he was surprised there was that much room for the wood. Praise God! No major long term eye injury.

So Matthew and I are planning a camping trip for next Wed. through Thursday. Yeah! It is about time that we get out and use our yearly pass. I cannot wait for the quiet. Possibly we’ll go to Jackass Springs.

I’m just seeing if this works.
