I’m back and so happy to be at my place again hopefully well on my way to healing.
As promised, a short series of photos chronicling my time at Brigham & Women’s (I’m so lucky to have gotten sick in Boston, Brigham’s is the best.)
I’m kind of a foodie and wasn’t able to eat for over a day when I was admitted.I kept my diet to fruits and vegetables with the occasional Italian ice 🙂
Brown rice, a bit of grilled chicken and vegetables, no added salt.B+W actually does a great job with their meals.
I even got to have pizza one day!
Sexy support stockings, please restrain yourself from heading outto purchase a pair. Quite fetching, I know.
On the left are their newest/redesigned hospital gowns. A great dealsofter than the old version on the right. Thanks nurse John for the samples!
I feel there are great people around us everywhere. The second day of my time in the hospital (going out of my mind with boredom) – a volunteer (so sweet) came bymy room with dozens of books. I selected this one and finished in a day. Highly recommended!
Though I was confined to hospital walls, I was inclined to do a bit of shoppingat Brigham & Women’s gift shop chock full of great goodies (and accessories!)
I was even allowed a bit of black coffee my Dad always insisted treating me to 🙂
I’ll be spending the day recouping to avoid any complications.
Have a wonderful Saturday – how are you spending it?

June 30, 2012Wow, okay, you beat me for a rough way to spend your Saturday. But to help you picture it and help your boredom at the present…I am in bumper to bumper traffic with 2 kids trying to pinch each other, a border collie that is high on motion sickness medication and growling out of confusion & every person in the tri-state area all trying to get to the same vacation destination as us on the same interstate! Anyway, I am impressed with your ability to make lemonade out of your lemons and utilize your time for a great post. That hospital food appears to be gourmet and hospital gowns have certainly come a long way! I hope you get to feeling better very soon!

June 30, 2012I can feel the brightness in your post and that you will be up and back to your bouncy self in no time at all. I shall be adding your name to my long list of prayers that I do each night. If you have a little red crystal – place it in the sun for 3 days today….and then bring near your desk and hold it 3 x a day – wishing for good health and at the end of 49 days…..goodness will come to you.
A feng shui …… exercise.

July 1, 2012Glad you are back at home, I've become so sick of hospitals the amount of time I've been in them. mind you, that hospital looked really luxurious, the menu looked more like a hotels! But its still not nice whatever the hospital is like.
I hope you are recovering well from your op x 🙂
