Time to recover,thoughts 2 months after GRS

  • click to rate
    In a weeks time I have my post op appointment ,it's been 2 months since my GRS.Overall it's been an ordeal as last month my elderly parents health deteriorated rapidly with my mother going into a nursing home,.I was thinking about them and their difficulties.At the same time during these 2 months, I experienced feelings of isolation,which are not uncommon during GRS recovery.These seem to be down to the simple fact that you are going through an experience and adjustment that other people cannot relate to .Additionally all the post op after care ,dilating etc, ...is an incredibly time consuming routine and at times quite draining.so you appear to be less than sociable and pre occupied.In my case for various reasons I have a lot of domestic chores to do,so It just seemed a battle to fit everything into the day.Anyway I am just taking a little timeout,before a stint in the garden and trying to complete a metalwork sculpture commission. I am looking forward to the post appointment,especially the train journey,as I will get a chance to rest ,probably falling asleep.
