I came home last night and am pretty tired and pretty sore, but hey. Dr. Vanguri spent more time during my surgery removing scar tissue and adhesions than the actual bypass. He said I was a mess! But, he was able to do a temp fix on my hernias and to complete my bypass. That was my goal. The pain when I woke up in my room was bad. But pain medication took care of it quickly; and, I didn't have to get up. I really sleep alot Wednesday and Thursday. So by Friday I had to make a move. They took the catheter out and it was on to the bathroom.

On to the hallways.

Etc., etc. Thank everyone for your support, prayers and well wishes. I'm going to look to see how Ted and Kristen are and then I'm going to put my feet up for a while and relax. I'll write more later. Lots of hugs, April
