Thank you for the many prayers and loving thoughts.

The doctors, nurses, and friends who told me I would feel worse today were correct.

I did sleep well – even went beyond the time I could have taken a Tylenol with codeine pill. After getting out of bed at 4:30 a.m., the pain almost put me down. I had to lie down so I wouldn’t pass out. My wonderful nurse (Cerwin) got me a pain pill, ginger ale, and a few crackers. Before the pain and nausea settled, I began feeling like I might throw up. Oh, my, I don’t think I could have handled that. Thankfully that feeling went away after a minute or two.

I am resting comfortably now – as long as I don’t move too much.

I found a few new bruises, and have a light black and blue seat belt mark on my chest.
