flower_cat update: thump!

[mdlbear]

Well, she's home! It feels indescribably nice to have her back in our own bed where she belongs. For the next couple of days she'll be on the BRAT diet: Bananas, Rice, Apples, and Toast.

The Cat slipped and fell on the way out of bed to the bathroom this morning, at about 5:30am; thank goodness for:

• adult-sized diapers (which make pretty good padding when you slip and fall on your butt)
• rounded corners on furniture
• windex
• paper towels
• baking soda

Only two scrapes, one on her side and one on my foot (don't know how I got it; I think I was out of bed before I fully woke up). The incision held up perfectly; I think she'll be ok on that front. Cleanup will take a while but we'll manage.

Give Kaiser hell.. I found out one of my colleague's relative had the same operation. The hospital kept the person for at least 4 days until the patient was eating solid food. Also, according to a nurse friend of mine, a patient isn't allowed to leave hospital until the person's shows proof that everything is working ie bowels....

Tell Cat to be a little more pussyfoot..giggle. I will call her tonight.
