Journal entry by Pauline Parker —
Ok, we’ll, the pain medications that they gave me during and immediately after the surgery wore off around 2am...& I have to say OUUUUCHIIIIIEEEE!! That’s my Christian term for it lol. Needless to say, I didn’t sleep much, only when I didn’t move. Toradol had absolutely no effect. I told the surgeon that I didn’t want any narcotics. Unfortunately, I may need them for a day or two because it’s painful to walk and breathe. And, I can’t really perform splinting with the area it’s in. So, I’m asking for prayers to reduce the pain to a manageable level. 🙏🏼
