I'm Home

I see that Shelia was a fantastic angel with her updates here...she was the best angel anyone could have ever hoped for with Allen and I at the hospital.  We  Shelia!

Thank you for all of your kind words and thoughts.  They must have sent all the positive energy I needed my way because I am feeling wonderful!  Thanks also to all of my other lovely visitors -- Jennifer, Pam (and family), Wendy, Leslie (and family), my dear children, and Kim, via your balloons! -- your visits were all so very special.

The morphine did a number on me (Darcie, we'll have to compare notes later...I now have lizard skin on my face as a result!) but once I was off of it, I turned a corner and felt really good.  Right now I have the famous left side pain.  I'm doing good with sipping and walking.  I haven't slept well for the past 4 nights so I got a nice nap when I got home today and am looking forward to a good night's sleep tonight. 

Since I love to write and would love to share a play-by-play of everything that happened while going through my surgery and hospital stay, mostly for all of you that are waiting in the wings, I will work on that as soon as I have the mental clarity. 

Right now, I'm happy to be home, finally on the loser's bench! 

Ohhh, and for a quick laugh.  Remember my Wizard of Oz analogy?  Shelia and I about cracked up when we realized the poster I'd been staring at across from my hospital bed was this: 


How's that for irony?! 

  Love 'n hugs to all!

Shauna,
I am so glad to hear you are home! You looked so good in the hospital. I am so glad you are doing well, and now you are a LOSER! I am so excited to watch your journey!
Hope to talk to you soon!
