He did scalendectomy and rib removal. one handed typing so very slow, trying to taper off morphine and go back to demerol. not sleeping or eating and i was told to do excersizes on arm. email me at rwheelan@aernet.ca if you want to talk more since we are going through this together.

CONCERNED RACHAEL - are you at home or still in the hospital? The reason I am practically trying to scream through the net here is that sometimes with our surgery we get fluid in the lung or chest cavity. I don't know what that swooshing sound is - bucket of water - I am really worried - can you get to an ER right away and have it checked out? I am going to try emailing you too. I hope it's nothing. But I am scared by what you are reporting. Please let us know if you're ok, ok?
