Trying to bathe while trying not to get water on your back is the pits. I find myself sitting on a step stool in the bathtub as the water pours from the faucet and I have to use a washcloth to wash and rinse while trying not to lift my arms over my head, or twist my waist or lean too far forward. I might as well try to balance spinning plates on sticks while riding a unicycle on a tightrope at the circus.
And then there is the act of actually using the bathroom. Turns out that you can't when your body can't, but you need to.
Everything hurts still, but the pain is improving. It's about a seven out of 10 right now, but I've used all my energy for this morning/afternoon.
