Visitors galore!

I woke up Wednesday morning with a new nurse taking care of me. She told me I could eat. I realized that I hadn't eaten since Monday night. So I got to eat hospital style blueberry pancakes. I couldn't sit up from my bed, so I had to eat while lying down. Wasn't the best eating experience ever. It was a little hard to push everything into my mouth.

My back still hurt, and my eye was a little sore. I was wearing my glasses now, so I could watch TV, and actually see what was happening around me.

Elizabeth brought me my backpack from work, which had been in my car. My car was still at work. I think I had given the keys to Kristina, and she was able to get my laptop out of there. I don't remember the conversation very well. I think she said something about others coming to visit me.

Later, Eric, Joel, and Bob visited. My mom arrived in the afternoon. I tried to reassure her that everything would be fine. Kristina visited that night. I don't remember much about that either. Kelsey also visited at some point in the day. She just let herself in since she actually worked in the ICU. How convenient =).

Anna, Sheryll, and Jennifer visited on Thursday. Anna came with magazines and a crossword puzzle book. Sheryll and Jennifer came with games and a stuffed animal =) Peter also came later on Thursday with a book in hand.

Friday afternoon, prior to getting discharged, I had a visit from Fred, Eric, Elizabeth, and John. My mom's friend Heakyu also came to help out my mother. It was nice to have visitors. Always is =)
