Feeling Tired 7/28/14

Not exactly sure why I felt tired all day, I had another good night of sleep.  I left the CPM machine on and it worked out great.  But thru the course of the morning and even this afternoon I felt tired.  I even took like a 2 hour nap today.  I guess I have to come back to the fact that I just had major surgery not even a week ago.  I think I have been doing so good that I feel like I should just keep improving and doing more without any struggles.  The other night my sister in law, who is a nurse, said that I needed to make sure I healed on the inside as well.  And i don't think I'm letting it all come together, and it's all part of the outcome.  

I had PT again today and was definitely sore when I was done.  I have been doing the exercises that I was given on Saturday and then today I got some new ones and learned how to do the ones I'm already doing in a different way.  This is one of those things that in one way is showing improvement and then in another I look at how far behind I am and how far I have to go to do simple tasks.  Just weird for me.  And I don't want to feel this way because this is going to be a long process especially if I  am going to do all I need to do to have the best outcome.  It's going to be small steps, small accomplishments and big results. 

Again....I have to tell myself it's only been 5 days and stop being so hard on myself. Because really, I'm actually farther along then a lot of other people at this stage normally are.  It shouldn't matter if I'm tired.  Just go take a nap.
