Day 6

I was finally released from the hospital today! The swelling has gone down some, but it is still pretty painful and uncomfortable.  I hope this pain doesn't last too long. I also now have bruises all the way down my chest, like someone dipped my head and shoulders in mustard. It is nice to be home, but also tiring. In the photo you can see the bruising. My face is yellow too, but it doesn't stand out as much in the photo. I am still eating all liquid, and I have found it is really hard to get aftertaste out of your mouth! I think the hardest part is eating so much creamy stuff, it's just gotten gross. I am trying to drink more broths now, hopefully that will help.
