Thanks y'all!

For the wonderful words of encouragment! This morning I woke up in less pain than I have since I've been home. The pains meds are working now, TG! I get this darn drain out tomorrow, and I think that'll help like you all said. Plus I have noticed that the incision on the upper right is the most tender, who ever mentioned that was right! I've been a little freaked since last night, my son had a febral seizure (spelling?) and we had to call 911 and go to the hospital. Luckily, he's home and feeling fine (at least from what I can tell, he's only 16 months!). So the pain I was feeling for Ty evaporated my surgery pain for awhile. I'm also hoping Angie will put me on pureed foods tomorrow, although I doubt it since it'll only be a week since surgery. But I'm hoping I'll get clearance for a little something for Christmas dinner. I'm not hungry yet, but once I make some potatoes I bet I will be! Anyway, thanks again everyone, I did appreciate all of you taking the time to answer me! Hugs Stephanie

I am so glad you are feeling better! You will feel much better with the drain out too!!! A lot of folks complain about left side pain, but I too had the most pain on the right side......I think it is where they had the biggest tool in moving around or something!!! I am glad to hear your little guy is okay, did he have a high temp?? A lot of little kids will have seizures when they get a high temp......Take Care of yourself and him! Jesi

Morning Stephanie, Think once that drain is out you are going to feel a whole bunch better. Am happy to hear you are feeling better, just one day at a time for recovery. Glad to hear your little guy is ok. Have a Merry Christmas. Carolyn

Stephanie, Iam so glad that you are feeling better! Just like anything else you have to give it time. When you get that drain out that will be a big step to feeling better! Sorry to hear about your son I hope he is doing much better now also! Hang in there and have a Merry Christmas, Janet S

Stephanie, So glad to hear that you are feeling better. I'm sorry that I did not respond to your earlier post - I just read it now. Many of us had rocky starts after this surgery, but it sounds like you are on your way. Prayers going out your way for your son - those seizures can be soooooooooo scary!! Hang in there. God bless, Andrea
