.....but I'm home now recovering after two and a half days in ICU due to extremely high blood pressures, sugars and low grade fever along with surgical complications due to extensive scar tissue from previous surgery. Fortunately, my surgeon is aweswome and perservered and was able to fix the damage and complete my revision. The only downside is I am super extra sore.

I'm looking forward to moving ahead on this new journey!
