Day 26

Feeling a damn sight better today than I was yesterday, the pain in my legs (which I will tell you now was hitting 7-8) has abated down to a low 2-3, I feel like a baby giraffe a bit, like I have run a marathon, wobbly and a sense of relief in the bones. I slept much better last night, I took some fairly good pain killers and then just got as comfortable as I could. But I slept pretty much all the way through. It's incredible what pain does to your mentality. This time yesterday I was feeling very 'oh woe is me', today I feel more 'yeah come on then is that as good as you can give me?!'. Pain is a terrible thing. But sleep is a great healer. My mouth feels dry and yucky at the moment so I am drinking more which is a good thing, I have noticed that it's my organs that are protesting a bit more today - maybe they have been but the pain from my legs has been too much, my liver and my lungs feeling it a bit just now. But overall.. I feel calm, round two done, let me just brush myself off, lets start climbing that mountain.
