First Full Day at Home after Surgery

The photo is one that I took at Mt Adams last week, it was from a series of shots early in the morning, and put together in Photoshop.
Last night was the first night at home post surgery. It was a difficult night, partly because I did not know what to expect from my body. But I am told that my experience is fairly typical. It is amazing how, for a normal person, the digestive system does "what it does" since birth, but in the traumatic changes brought about by surgery, some of these functions seem to be confused, and need to be retrained.
I have tried to talk to others that have been through the same procedure, to compare my experience so far with theirs, and to try to get a sense about what is ahead. I'm a little nervous, but given the fact that I am in God's hands, and I feel that I had the best care any person could have in the northwest, I am confident for an overall good outcome.

I would also encourage you to post responses to any of these notes, as you think of encouragements or personal experiences others can benefit from.
