I feel a little better today. Not entirely, but no worse either. I will be discharged from the hospital in a few hours. My hospital bed and walker is at home waiting for me. I had my IV taken out last night so my arm feels much better. It's pretty bruised though because they had to poke me seven times trying to get a good IV site. A physical therapist came to see me walk with the walker. Good news - I didn't fall. Bad news - I only made it about 10 feet without sweating and feeling exhausted.
I had my first "BodyTalk" session today. I haven't read about it much, but it sounds like a healing touch type of thing. This lady came in, stuck a cold, wet cotton ball in my energy source (belly button) and stuck a post it note on my head. I guess my body was supposed to tell her what needed to be healed so that she could help it.
