Last Hospital Sketch

 The food at the hospital for dinner and lunch was delicious. Breakfast...not so good...just regular eggs and a roll. I did sketch the tray from the dinner the first night...beef fillet (juicy, rare, and tasty) just the way I like it. No complaints about that.

Yesterday the hospital called to tell me that I left my sketchbook in my room. They held on to it until my SIL drove over there today to pick it up.

Hospital Sketches

  Wednesday I had a total hip replacement at Mather Hospital in Port Jefferson. The surgery went well and a few hours later they had me up and walking around. Today I had PT where they taught me some exercises ro do. I am sore and achy, but it is tolerable with the medications. I'm sittin here with an ice pack on my hip. I did a few sketches from my room no roommate to sketch. I wish I had my sketching materials with me in recover since there were a lot of people there, but my bag wasn't anywhere near me. I had to wait to sketch until after they put me in a room. It wasn't too exciting but I made the best of it. One sketch is looking out toward the door and include the breathing machine I need to use and some of what was on the lunch tray.

Here is a view looking out of my room toward the hallway.

I couldn't skip sketching me in bed with the IV.
