5. A Pink-Themed Wednesday
April 6, 2022
A pink-themed Wednesday. Doreen posing with some of my get well gifts. Giant bougainvillea somewhere in New Manila, spotted on the way to the convent of the Pink Sisters (a contemplative order of Roman Catholic religious women who are formally known as the Holy Spirit Adoration Sisters). Mom and I stopped by to pray this morning.
Post-op day six. Minimal pain at incision and muscular pain, and only when I move. Nausea improving – usually just in the morning with antibiotics; just have to pace myself with breakfast. None during the day. I suspect it is also related to gastro-esophageal reflux since there’s a giant elastic bandage around my chest compressing the area where the stomach meets the esophagus.
