Going Home, But Not Really

I wasn’t feeling great in the morning. I got light-headed when I stood up, and I couldn’t keep any food down. Dr. Cordero came and said everything looked good, and it would just take some time.

They took another Chest X-Ray, which everything looked good. Dr. Cordero changed the dressing on my wound, putting strips on that he said would stay until our next appointment.

Eventually, I started feeling better, and was even walking around the hospital. My oxygen levels were still slow while I slept, but the breathing apparatus helped.

At 3:30 PM, I was discharged, where I went to my parents’ house to recuperate. The car ride home made me feel not-so-good, but getting home and getting a little bit of sleep helped.

At 8:30 PM, Dana, her son, and her mom came to visit me, where we sat up and chatted till almost 10:00 PM. It made me feel much better, and led me to fall asleep with a smile on my face.
