Hi everyone,

Well things are starting to look up for me finally.

I had a good report from the surgeon and a good report from my family doctor.

My hemoglobin is starting to go back up as is my iron.  They were very happy to see that things were moving in the right direction.

My white cell count is now back down in a normal range.  I am still a little anemic but the iron pills should help each week to resolve that.

I am feeling much better yesterday and today.

I am down 27 lbs post op.  Not bad for 3 weeks.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for ALL of your support.

You all have been so wonderful and i am very grateful.

Thank you.

Sounds good!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

Hi Lisa,

Thanks, I am so relieved things are getting better.  It will still take a couple more weeks to really feel up to par.  But better is good.

Geoff,
Keep up the good work. I'm glad that you are feeling better. Don't slack off on the vitamins/fluids/protein. Exercise, but remember you are still recovering and also need rest periods too. I wish you the best.
