Each day I'm getting a little better. The are switching me to morphine today insted of the phentanyl. I am going to try and take a real shower today and if I can survive that without much pain then I may be able to go home tomorrow.

As for my friend Anita that I wrote about a few days ago, well Wednesday a friend came in and said that she was still in a come and it looked like it would be a while before she came out of it. And Thursday Anita woke up!!!! Prayer and faith are amazing things.

When I had my Chiari surgery he said that there is only 1/2 percent chance that I would get worse. Now I am scared that I am going to be worse. My vision is getting blurry again and I am twitching a little and the tingliness in my right hand is back. I just hope this is all part of the healing process. I promised myself I won't worry until May 3. That will be 3 months post op.

So most likely I wil get out sometime this weekend. That would be a great Valentines Day present. :-)
