It's been 12 Days Since Surgery

My surgery was on Oct 27, 2011.  I am amazed with modern medicine, but wish my recovery was faster!  I am still hanging out in bed or on the couch most of the day.  Sitting up at the table with my family at meal time is all I can handle right now.  I had a complete hysterectomy and mesh to suspend my bladder.  My plans and reality differ quite a bit. In my mind I had envisioned myself writing in my blog every day and feeling like doing my last homework assignment but reality consisted of sleeping, sleeping and more sleeping! My medication, Lupron Depot made me very forgetful prior to surgery, but at least my pain was under control for the most part.  Now I am awaiting the day where I feel able to do my last project for school and finally earn my BA in Psychology.  I want it so bad but cannot think straight right now and am unable to tackle the assignment.  I am told that I will need to start taking Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).  That will be interesting and it is my hope that all goes well and others who face these challenges can look to my experience and find comfort in their own situation.
