A half hour, 30 minutes, however you want to look at it it's not a whole lot of time.
You can easily kill 30 minutes with a TV show, listen to a few songs, heck, most of our ultrasounds are always longer than 30 minutes! But 30 minutes is the number of the day, because 30 minutes is the amount of time I'm allowed to leave my hospital room/floor every day!
The Dr. told us on Friday we could get out of the room, but didn't write it in my chart, so when Andy went to ask the nurse Sunday evening (after our Dr. had left) she said she couldn't approve it... wah wah :( Thankfully this morning when they were doing rounds we got it documented!
So today, Andy took me outside for a bit - I hadn't been outside in TEN DAYS! Then he pushed through different parts of the hospital and got me a smoothie at the cafeteria. It's not that exciting, I know, but it is when you've been looking at the same four walls for four days!
The best part is, this isn't a one time deal, we're allowed to leave every day! :)
