First hiccup today. My cat unexpectedly jumped in my lap today and promptly bit one of my drain tubes. Punctured it and rendered it useless. Not wanting to risk infection, the doc told me to just pull it out. Still have 2 drains left and this one was the least producing so not a big problem.

Feeling pretty good otherwise. Trying to not do much at all but I am able to get up and down much easier today.

I'll have to REALLY watch my cat, he loves to chew wires. Especially fat ones. Ate an A/C wire once. Will probably LOVE drain tubes, LOL

Soooo, is this cat one that needs a good punching or a serious talking to? LOL! ;)

I hate drains, I would secretly be giving that cat extra treats and telling him THANK YOU for helping remove evil from my body.

LOL....you remember that? Yeah....he needs a good throat punch for this and 14 years worth of harassing me. But yep, it did work out in the end. Getting the drain out was nice.

Just got back from his office this morning. I actually had another hiccup. Came down with a fever Monday night and it persisted all day yesterday. Felt very "flu-like" and honestly I just wanted to die. But the fever broke last night and I'm feeling much better. The doc removed another drain this morning so there's just 1 left. He also put me in a smaller binder which is slightly better, and ok'd me to take a shower.

He gave me a real hard time about the cat biting the drain tube. He has yet to find a colleague who's ever heard of that happening.

Glad the fever broke! Oh I bet missus butter is going to miss those sponge baths now that you can shower on your own :P

Ha! Your jealousy is leaking through. :P

He's going to dine out on that story for years. So glad you're better.

I was thinking the same thing. I can see him at the golf course telling the other doctors....."and then he actually said the f**king cat bit a hole in the drain tube...LOL....talk about desperate to get rid of a drain"

Lol I can actually see him saying that!! I am glad that you are feeling better. Be careful with that shower... It is exhausting and you will need standby help. The first one was the only one I needed help with. After that no problem. I think my blood pressure dropped when the binder or garment was off and made me nauseous and dizzy.

Re showering, get one of those cheap plastic outdoor chairs and put it in the shower. Sit on it while you shower. This was a lifesaver after I had knee surgery a few years ago.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
