Day off, again.

Looks like winter is coming.  Someone was very industrious.
Surely not me.
I spent the day on the couch with Roy.


I took Motrin and Flexeril, and slept half the morning.  Took Roy for a short walk, and back to the couch.
I drank tea.
I didn't read.
I didn't knit.
I didn't do one single thing, not even watch TV.


 It's a new definition of SLUG.
But I have been wondering if that's what I needed.
Maybe everyone is right, maybe I have been doing too much.
Nothing much moves me.

This does however.


I just got a total for my surgery......most of which is being paid by Medicare and United Health Care.

The total hospital cost, (not doctor fees) was $239,614.24.


The rods in my neck were $57, 747.90.  Geesh, they must be made of diamonds.
Is titanium that expensive???
Lord.


The physical therapist that walked me down the hall a couple of times, and up a flight of stairs.

$880.00


 Use of the operating room:   $23,300.00.
Intensive care ( I was there for 24 hours)   $10,142.00.
Semi private room for 3 nights: $16,950.00


A sunny day, an Adirondack Mountain lake, a good friend.
Pretty priceless.


Thanks to all of you for your kind words.  Pain makes you feel alone, even when you're clearly not.
