TWO WEEKS POST-SURGERY

Wednesday, June 23, 2010

Hey Strangers!

Two weeks have come & gone since my surgery. I have been resting, healing & slowly nursed back to health. Every day is better than the last. Every day is another step away from the hell I was living. I am blessed & grateful to be here. Praise God!

I'm still experiencing pain, still on the Vicodin...but I anticipate the end is near. I can tell the pain is from the surgery & it's different from the pain I endured for the last five months. My doctor assures me I am going to feel like a new woman & I feel confident that I will.

I'm still not up to writing all the details of the surgery, but I will soon.

For now, I am thrilled to be on the other side of this surgery, looking back. I am so excited to leave my house for reasons other than going to the hospital. We may even head to the lake on Saturday! Just for fun! I barely remember what it's like to make plans & have a good time. I know if I'm not up for it this weekend, it won't be long till I am.

I am so happy to blog again & look forward to interacting with y'all again!

Sincere thanks to all of you for your prayers, support & understanding. You helped me maintain my sanity.

Talk to you soon!

Thanks Jeanne!

I'm not gonna make it to the lake today, I'm not doing quite as well. But, like you said, rest rest rest! I just have to be patient & give myself the time I need to heal.

Thanks for your thoughts & prayers! It is great to hear from you too! :)

I am doing pretty good & resting. I was able to celebrate the 4th weekend out of my house with family & friends. It was great! I hope you had a nice 4th too!
