Day 11: Bumps in the Road

​As you've probably noticed I haven't blogged in quite a few days.  Honestly, there wasn't too much to share for the first couple of days.  In a nutshell, I started showings on my house that I'm selling (18 in 3 days!), and I spent some fun days with friends and my boyfriend over the weekend.  No drinking, yay me!

Then on Sunday night, Day 8, things took a turn.  Around bedtime (10pm!!) I noticed that my abdomen was becoming quite uncomfortable.  I had a "cheat" dinner that included pasta and bread, which I rarely eat, so I figured the discomfort would pass quickly.  By 1am I was at level 10 pain, and stayed that way for the next 12 hours.

My boyfriend (poor guy, it was his birthday) finally decided it was time to go to the hospital, this was not normal.  After trying a cocktail of meds, the pain came right back.  The doc then ordered an Xray.  Results of the Xray were concerning, so we took a closer look with a CT Scan.  Drum roll please... my small intestine was obstructed by some scar tissue, yikes!  So, off to surgery I went.  

I think that was the quickest surgery in history.  I was in and out of there in a matter of 15 minutes!  Doc said it was a simple procedure, but had we not caught it when we did, things could've gotten scary.  Whew!

So now it is Day 11.  Needless to say, I'm moving a little slowly, but am thankful that I get to go home today.  My home, my bed, sunshine and my kitty cat.  I also get spoiled by my mom, she's bringing me homemade soup.  My house is also under contract.  It all happened while I've been in the hospital, lol.  

The last couple days have sure been a bump in the road, no one plans on these things, right?  But it brings many things into perspective.  I'm grateful for my overall health that is contributing to a quick recovery.  I'm also grateful to my many friends and family that have reached out to send love and healing.  As a healer, I never take health (physical, mental, spiritual) for granted.  So, onward :) Love and Light

PS- My boyfriend will still get his birthday, just a little late lol.  He earned it after taking such good care of me the last few days.  Love him SO much!
