Thought I'd pop over and give the latest news on mom (becknana).
I called early Saturday morning and mom sounded awful. She was in extreme pain and didn't get much sleep Friday night. She almost sounded a bit depressed wondering if it was all worth it.
Needless to say I worried pretty much all Saturday. Sunday I called again and she sounded MUCH better. Such a relief for me. The pain had let up a bit and had eaten a bit despite some nausea. So, things are looking up a bit.
She thinks she will stay at Granny's until tomorrow at the earliest. So, hopefully she'll be back with an update of her own soon.

I must admit that the pain I had from foot surgery was way worse that I expected. Once the initial drugs wore off, it just throbbed day and night for almost a week. Then, it just turned to a dull ache in one day! My niece, the nurse, told me the swelling of the tissues presses on the nerves. The next surgery, I kept it iced and it was much easier going. It also didn't help that I couldn't maneuver on crutches, fell down in the bathroom on the 1st day home. After that, I just scooted along on my bottom when I needed to get somewhere. Tell your DM to "cool your jets" (a new saying from my soldier DGrS) - LOL.
