July 2nd

The anesthesiologist placed a hip blocker that stopped all the pain from my leg. I started to regain feeling in the leg and around 3pm I could tell that the hip blocker was pretty much all gone. I wasn’t sure what was going on but I still didn’t have any pain in my knee. I could wiggle my foot just fine and felt like the leg could probably support my whole weight. I didn’t’ want to push it so I stayed off it and kept it elevated the whole day. My mom brought me around 6 meals and kept ice in the little cold water circulator cooler (not sure what its real name is) . I only got out of bed to use the bathroom which I had to do often.
