carry on without me

Out of surgery.   In good spirits.   Still has wound vacs on both sides of her left calf.   Thought one side would be closed up after this surgery.   Staples removed from right thigh (where the veins were harvested for left knee).   Steri-strips in place instead.   Serious stretching of calf muscles while Kathy was out.   I have to leave.   Did not go outside today.   Waited for surgery.   Starving.   Hasn't eaten for 24 hours.   Nurses love her.   I have to leave.   She can maneuver herself over the edge to the potty.   How will she get the potty next to the bed?   Sometimes the nurses take so long to answer.   Ordered food.   The next two days will be lonely for Kathy.   Put a layer of pillows under her sheet.   I have to leave.   Hasn't read these blog posts yet.   Said she can't post on drugs.   May not be updates until someone visits.   Sad.   Because...   I have to leave.
