Oh my Shelly! That is a very serious complication! So glad to hear you are doing better. I know exactly how you feel. Getting used to everything – the changes. I like the night drainage bag too. Actually, I love it! So nice not getting up 6 times in the middle of the night. I was teary when I got home from the hospital. It is just part of the healing process – physically and mentally. A little frustrating at times learning the new normal. It is an adjustment. I am old hat now at changing my pouch. Strange as it might sound, most of the time I don’t even notice it. Somehow it just becomes part of you. Take care girl!
