Recovery Day #5!

Last night I went to bed at 10pm. At first it was very difficult to find a comfortable sleeping position. I managed to get everything in the right position, still took a while to fall asleep, switched positions (left side, right side, back) during the night, finally waking/getting up at 6:30. I couldn’t linger in bed any longer as I had to get started with the pills I have to take every 8 or 12 hours.

I had a 90-minute nap after breakfast and a 1-hour nap early in the afternoon.

Now my incision site is the least of my worries. My testicles have swollen to the size of oranges. The internet says this is normal and in fact they can reach the size of grapefruits. Sure makes it difficult to walk and to sit. Using the toilet is even more challenging but I managed to have another BM in the afternoon.

Teresa shared with me that her friend Patricia has Covid-19 as well as Jose Polanco one of her gym trainers.

I watched the 2 hour 18 minute The Tomorrow War on Medellin TV then a couple more episodes of the TV series Alone.

Colombia tied Uruguay 0-0 but CO won 4-2 on penalty kicks. I didn’t see the match (I’m sure it was exciting) but there was extensive coverage on the evening news.

 

The New York Times’ 7-day average of new daily infections and deaths has the US with 12,809 ð 13,596 ð 13,304 new cases and 262 ð 230 ð 223 new deaths.

Per Medellin Guru, as of yesterday Colombia has a total of 4,269,297 ð 4,297,302 ð 4,324,230 new cases with 107,137 ð 107,723 ð 108,314 deaths.  Medellin has 355,226 ð 357,362 ð 359,314 cases, an increase of 1,952 cases from July 2nd to 3rd. Envigado has a total of 27,287 cases, an increase of 96 from July 2nd to 3rd.
