Lessons in Humility

Round 1:

It’s very difficult for me to go from being depended on by everyone to needing someone else for me to depend upon. Yesterday, with the femoral and sciatic block on my right leg, I was truly bed ridden and 100% relying on someone else to even go to the bathroom…

Now, with the block wearing off it’s a bit more tolerable but I still can’t hardly change a diaper! My littles want to be held and, although I try to make it work, I also have to say ‘no, not right now baby’ a lot more than I’d like. 

I will say, the pain is a lot more tolerable than I initially anticipated, a pleasant surprise. But tomorrow starts physical therapy, I’m sure that will knock me down a few rungs.
