D177 : Hugs tally 35. Don’t let bed bound stop you from hugging. Let the huggers come to you. I managed to rope all the staffs that came in for a hug ha 🙂

I had to move from bed 9 to 5A by noon. Apparently, no 9 is for special nuclear medicine patient and someone needs the room. My OT Rachel makes sure I have appropriate mattress in the new bed while I’m bed bound. Thanks Rach for getting it all sorted and organised for me 🙂

I have special people come to visit me too. My mum, Kim and Jes who kindly moisturise my dry skin 🙂 What a kind friend she is.

For the first time, I have to have someone helps me shower too. It would have been a horrifying event for me to be nude in front of someone else. But my pain makes me less care about dignity lol. Thank you nurse Lizzie for helping me scrub my body. I had to shower sitting down in the commode. I’m still weak standing up. It was nice to have a hot shower. I haven’t been able to have one since Saturday night. That shower took a lot out of me. I was feeling fresh and exhausted by the end of it. I desperately need my nap haha.
