Julie,
Mike is right...you are doing great! I was tired for weeks and weeks, in fact months. I think it was like 3 weeks before I felt I had the energy to walk around the block and I would not even have attempted to drive. I didn't drive for nearly three months.
And it is just as Pat said...you think you are tired now...wait until you begin training that sweet new bladder...it is quite a challenge but set your mind to it and you will do it. I just kept setting an alarm clock so I could keep the pace and I never felt rested. But it is only temporary. Be patient with yourself. In time you get the bladder trained and life gets easier. And then, you feel so very proud of yourself
...and your new bathroom habits become a routine.
If you haven't gotten my card yet, it was to let you know you wouldn't be able to reach me this week. I decided to go back to visit my friends at the hospital...surgery on Tuesday and if I'm lucky they will turn me loose over the weekend. I have two good surgeons and will be just fine...it's just another bump in the road for me...and something else I can add to my website.
