Your positive is awesome!!! Congratulations!!

Negative: I'm back to feeling nauseous nearly 24/7 for awhile....

Positive(s): After 7 days of sponge baths, a 1/2 hour scalding shower sure felt amazing! There are no more wires hanging out of my nose, or taped to my face! I can use soap, lotion, and makeup again! I lost 8pnds in a week!!
