I got home from the hospital today at around noon. The incision wounds to my abdomen, belly button, and both breasts all look really good and seem to be healing unusually well. I came home with all four drains still in place (2 for my abdomen, 2 for my chest) but the volumes draining to them are pretty low so hopefully we'll be able to pull most, if not all, of them out on Monday.
Meanwhile, the Percocets are doing their job pretty well keeping me reasonably comfortable. To walk around at all I have to use a walker, though, because I'm not allowed to straighten my body all the way for about three weeks. Otherwise, my internal and/or external abdominal stitches can pull apart. I don't think I want that adventure.
Since I have to use a walker though, I decided it needed to be pimped out. My fellow riders will notice the blacked-out look with pipe wrap on the headers, which adds +5 hp at the crank. That means I'm now faster than a Harley. Note, also, the bell on the handlebar. When you're moving this fast, you can't afford someone not noticing and pulling out in front of you. Revzilla stickers applied to look extra legit.
So I know you're probably intimidated, but who's ready to drag race this puppy?
