Amen!  I'd say there are two reasons I did this:

1.  I'm worth it.  This is a lesson I have to re-learn on an almost daily basis.  I am worthwhile and worthy, just because I am.

2.  I am truly living and am able to "do stuff."  I didn't even realize I wasn't doing stuff pre-op, but I wasn't.

Thank you for the reminder!

Oh man - LOVE THIS POST!!! I am 6 weeks out, in a stall, and have been whiny. But this post reminds me ......... I can't even imagine how great my life is going to be ... how nice it will be to live "without struggle" like someone said above.

What shall I return to the Lord for all his bounty to me? 

I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord,  I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones.  

O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, the child of your serving girl. You have loosed my bonds. -- Psalm 116:12-16
