Still recovering well.. have missed you all.

I am recovering well, although still needing lots of rest and having to take it easy. am hoping to be more up to par very soon. I have a little pain yet, but not bad at all as long as i behave and do not try to overdo it. Not always an easy thing for me.

I have managed to eliminate the 15 lbs in water weight, and another 2 lbs in addition..so I am pretty happy about that! Gotta update the ole ticker! YEAYYYY!!! 

When I was in the hospital, the evening after my surgery, the doc came in to check on me. There I lay in my bed snuggled up to my new grandbaby. He walked in the door to my room and stopped dead in his tracks. hahaaaaaa... he was floored and confused. He asked me "Where did that come from?" Oh did I laugh! It hurt to laugh but couldn't help it. You could just tell by the look on his face and his reaction that he was thinking "I'm sure I didn't deliver a baby for this lady!" I pointed out my daughter in the corner of the room and explained this was my grandbaby.. You could just see the look of relief washing over the poor doc.. lol.  I told him the baby was my therapy.. he laughed and said He could see why.

I will work at reading and replying to posts I have missed. I havemissed you all, and look forward to catching up on everything as I can.

Hugs to you all!

Hi Patrece! I'm so happy to see you back, well and posting! And recuperating with the new grandbaby in your arms! LOL I hope you are not in too much pain any more. I worried a bit about you because 2 surgeries in a few months was no easy thing but I knew you would make it with flying colors!

Take it easy and make sure you are fully recovered before trying to go at full speed again. Kiss grandson for me.

Yeah I was wondering how things would go too, with 2 surgeries so close together.. but I am a tough cookie I spose.. and doing well. I'll definately give that precious little man extra hugs! He's such a gift! And his Momma is thrilled to have him and such a good Momma too!
