The after-effects of surgery...I need a ME Day...

1/13/2016

0 Comments

 
As you know...I had surgery not too long ago to remove a tumour from a gland. The after-effects have taken some time getting used to and some days I struggle with them...today is one of those days. 

Many nerves were upset during the procedure and as they slowly come to life again, they're firing like electrical storms in my jaw and ear and the pain radiates up my face and down my neck. This is the most painful part of the recovery so far and my ear is constantly popping too. It makes it hard for me to concentrate and my head is pounding. 

With all that's going on...I'm taking a ME Day...a day spent soothing, caring for, and nurturing my needs. I need some down time. 

I hope your day treats gentle and you do too and if you're in need of some ME Time...I hope you will take it...do the things you need for you...do what makes you smile, what makes you feel good, what soothes and comforts your pain.

​take good care of you
