Journal Entry for October 7, 2007 Mood
Sunday, October 7, 2007

Well I am doing ok, I have my moments of thinking bad thoughts about what can or can't happen but remind myself there is no point as I wont know till I am at a point to consider trying.  I have also decided to do something drastic, I am getting at tattoo of a dolphin on my ankle so that I can look at it whenever I am having bad thoughts, also it can remind me that there are people worse off then me and I should spare a thought for them instead of be upset about what is happening with me.  Smile

Did have a good experience over the weekend though, I am now into week 9 after my laparoscopy and I have finally been able to stop sleeping with a cushion to stop the discomfort of going to sleep on my side.  I had queried the fact I needed the cushion with the gyno and at first he said once I finally got rid of the gas I shouldn't need the cushion, but because it continued I asked him again and he said it could be a result of internal bruising (I guess having adhesions cut off your bowel and abdominal wall and your bowel being put back in place could cause that  :) ) so I guess the internal bruising has settled or disappeared because I now have my bed to myself again and the large cushion has been stuck in another room..  Yay..  Laughing
