Thumbs up

Karin:

I'm glad the surgery is done for you and you are heading for the other side. I agree with taking the pain medication. It is supposed to block the pain messages to the brain and help you heal. It's hard to heal when your body is wracked with pain. You do yourself more harm than good in this kind of state. Rest up, eat chicken soup, watch good soap operas, call me in the morning.

It sounds like you are heading down the path of recovery. Now comes the difficult time of trying to get back to normalcy. Sorry I had not written writ after your surgery. I was getting ready for my wife's hysterectomy that was done yesterday. I get to take her home today so I am going to be her nurse for the next 4-6 weeks. She better behave or I will make her laugh.

Hang in there Karin.

Terry Newton
