Hi all,

Gbears is out of surgery and recovering. Her surgery went really well and no complications.

The anesthetic was difficult on her system so she is still recovering. She isn't able to walk or sip yet, and they aren't able to manage her pain well yet. She seems in good spirits... she's a trooper.

Please keep her in thoughts/prayers for speedy recovery.

She will post when she can!

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. Choose happy.
