Hi, Greg here.
I am so happy. After yesterday night's pain, all things are wonderful. Thanks everyone for the love and support.
I awoke yesterday from the surgery without a working epidural - Civil-War-battlefield-screaming-type-pain. They couldn't give me general stuff because you have to be awake for epidural placement. Sitting up and leaning over to get the second one inserted took about about an hour and I believe may be the greatest accomplishment of my life. All downhill from here.
They gave me this great little bear (comes free with the surgery!) to squeeze when I cough. He's got this cute little MD Anderson t-shirt and his given name is Sir Koff-Alot.
All day, they make me cough, breath into machines, and walk. Here I am on my first walk this morning.
I'm watching the game with Mom and Dad. I just shouted a hooray as Romo connected on 4th and 2 to Crayton for a TD. Oooo, that hurt!
