Waking Up from Surgery

I don’t remember the recovery room. I think my doctor talked to me and explained how the surgery went, but I don’t remember a thing. I remember being very thirsty and Michael hand-feeding me little pieces of ice. Yum! I remember opening my eyes every now and then and seeing him through the bars on my bed reading his heavy red tome of a book. And then he’d feed me more ice chips. Sooo good!

And there was a gigantic bouquet of my favorite tropical flowers. Birds-of-Paradise, Dendrobium orchids, ginger flowers, anthuriums, etc. from my loving hubby. :)

    Birds-of-Paradise are so beautiful.

    Those ice chips are tasty when you could drink 5 gallons of water.

    Gigi is sometimes grouchy as a two headed snake when she wakes up.

    I’ve never met a two headed snake. Why are they so grouchy?
