    Anesthesia affects DH way differently than me. He's still a little "la-la." He also opted for a nerve block, which is keeping his whole left arm numb until tomorrow. However, he says it feels like a weird thing hanging on his body, and can't use his hand at all right now. Anyway, we've been at home for about an hour or so. He won't be doing much until early Saturday, when he can shower, change the dressing, and start doing one little exercise. That's fine, because right now it's 93 degrees out, and I am happy to stay in the AC. Tomorrow and the 4th are going to be crappy, too, but I will head to the gym early AM, before he's up. I have about 2 hours of work, later in the afternoon, but I am sure he will be free of all of the anesthesia by then.

    Glad the surgery went well. Hope his mental faculties come back very quickly and that he heals up fast!

    The nerve block wore off around 8 PM, so he started taking the pain meds... his shoulder looks much better, as does his whole body. It was kind of crooked before. He had a bad night, with pain, but he knows that after the next 24 hours, it will start subsiding. I just got back from the gym, so I suppose I should be nice and make a good breakfast. He usually does that...

    Glad to hear the surgery went well and that he is on the mend! I am always amazed at how quickly people can recover - particularly with the surgical fix.
