So as Renae reported I had my surgery Monday monring and since then I have been doing lots of sip sip siping and walk walk walking. I'm feeing great! Sure I've got some sorness and it's still hard to get up and down, dressing myself is still a bit of a task but all things considered I'm really feeling awesome. I'm out of the Hospital but since I live about 50+ miles from the Dr.'s office I'm staying at the hospitality house provided on a donation basis by the hospital. It's a really great place for patients and families to stay! It's just like a hotel but there is a free laundry facility and a homey little kitchen area where you can prepair meals. Anyway, Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers, they really did the trick! I just hope that the rest of my recovery is as unremarkable as this first few days! Love you all!! and thanks for saving my place on the bench...it feels great on this side!!!!

Congratulations!! Yes, this side of the bench is so much different isn't it? I will pray with you that the rest of this ride will be the same as it has been. Relax and heal and welcome to the bench!

Glad you're feeling better!  Just wait a couple of weeks and you'll see a huge difference!  I am just realizing it.  Today my friend at work told me my butt was getting smaller!  Til then, I was feeling like I was just deflating from the top down, but it's good to know that it's going on other places too!

Hey there!  Congratulations on being on this side!  You're going to love it!

I'm glad things are going well for you, and it's a smart move for you to stay close to the hospital since you have the opportunity to.  I live 3 hours from Edmond and when I don't feel good that makes me a little nervous.  Sip and walk!  You know the drill!

Hugs,
Marsha

Congratulations Loser!  The Bench is pretty comfy, eh?  Hang on for the ride of your life.  The next few weeks are going to blow your mind.  Take good and gentle care of yourself!
