I normally wouldn't post a picture of my gut on my blog but this called for it. This is day 6 of my appendectomy wound. Its about a 6 inch incision on my low right side abdomen, with 10 staples and very classy.
I'll give you the short version recap. Last Monday night around 7:30pm I suddenly got a killer stomach ache. By about 1:00am I ruled out food poison and indigestion. By 2:00am I was in the Urgent Care, after being diagnosed with a UTI Infection, that just could not be possible, it was off to the ER around 3:00am. I had an ultrasound & CT scan to reveal that I had an acute appendicitis. I was prepped for surgery and that procedure started around 12:00pm. I spent the night in the hospital and returned home on Wednesday morning.
I am recovering, unable to lift my baby or drive and have had babysitters everyday for me and the kids. I am also anticipating a big fat hospital bill but at least I got this awesome souvenir to remember the event.
What a bummer! Too bad we didn't live closer! I'd love to help you out!! Hope you're feeling better. That's going to be an awesome scar :)
ReplyDeleteDude that is gnarly!!! Let me know if I can help with the kids this week! We have spring break.
ReplyDeleteThat's nasty! Are you sure you're allowed to post such graphic pictures? How about a warning next time? Yuck!
