All's quiet on the western front
or at least on Rogers Ave in Brooklyn. Ian and I are home from the hospital. Everything went well and he is recovering nicely according to the urologists.
Of course he is in a lot of pain and is having incontinence problems b/c of the catheter. Everything seems to smell of pee and I am scared to death of hurting him. He has 3 separate incisions on his lower abdomen. I'm so tired I could die and I am afraid that he'll get hurt while I sleep. I need about 5 drinks and a good bawl and I figure I can schedule that in sometime next weekend.
Please, if there is a god or karma or something, let work be quiet tomorrow. Mom won't get here until almost 5pm because there is no one to pick her up at the bus station until then. So I have the whole day alone with Ian, trying to get him to eat and drink, walking him back and forth from the bathroom, trying not to hurt him.
He's asleep again, I guess I need to try to sleep as well.
