After a week of hospital stay, am truely thankful to be back home. After this whole episode, I am filled with nothing but gratitude to God, my family and friends and the doc and nurses who have showered me with love, care, concern and well wishes. Am so touched by all who came to visit me and brought cheer with your flowers and gifts too.
The operation was a successful one and the gyne removed a total of 16 fibroids. In case you have no clue how it looks like, the below is for your viewing pleasure. Beware! May be too gory for the faint-hearted!
*Disclaimer: The author is not responsible for any feeling of repulsion after viewing the above.
The gyne jokingly said that the largest one is like the grandmother of fibroid. It measures 8X10cm. Followed by the mother and the daughters. Took them about 3hours+ plus to get all of them outta me. That sure explains the nasty buldge in my tummy. However a washboard ad is still no where to be found, perhaps with some toning after I recover.
Today's the 3rd day since I've returned home and took some time to reflect about my stay in the hospital. Really thankful to these dearest ones who have showered me with immeasurable love while I was weak and could not care for myself.
My dearest mama
You held my hand as I started to learn to walk, took leave and stayed in the hospital from morning till evening to keep me company and make sure no evil nurse bully me. Walk me to the toilet, cleaned me, even accompany me to the toilet because you were afraid I could not cope on my own when I first started to walk.
My grandmama
For cooking yummy tonic for me, feeding me, coming to the hospital to visit me despite her old age, told me stories while I was in the hospital.
Alexis
For taking time off to send me to the hospital, be beside during my stay in the hosipyal and be there when I get discharged, be beside me, praying for me, making sure that I eat enough, rest enough. For holding my hand when I take baby steps when walking, cheer me up but at the same time not make me break out in stitches. (pun intended)
All relatives and friends
Thank you for taking time to visit me, pray for me, your well wishes and your gifts.
I am loved! :)
