Those shots really suck, don't they? Thankfully I only had to do mine once a day for 2 weeks. One of the biggest physical problems I had was getting my surgical leg up into the bed - it seemed to take forever before I was able to do it on my own. I had to snicker (sorry!) about the sleeping on the back thing. I'm a back sleeper as well and am currently taking advantage of the fact that I can sleep on my sides for one more week, knowing good and well, it will be awhile before I'll have that "tossing" luxury again. Keep up the good work!<br /><br />CherylAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6382227713563866676.post-72990450986484070792009-09-21T18:24:42.281-04:002009-09-21T18:24:42.281-04:00Paula and I were on a short cruise,so this is my f...Paula and I were on a short cruise,so this is my first day back.
