Checking in!
Hey all, thought I would pop in for a visit! How is everyone doing? Any news on surgery dates for anyone? Lhasa mom? Have you heard anything yet? Carol? Anyone? lol! I wanted to let you all know that I am back to work and will be posting again regularly. Would like to see this board come back to life!
Take care family!

Wow already back at work. You must be wonder woman I would milk it as long as I could...JK I have had no news yet I keep waiting and living life with 3 dogs 1 being a puppy that wants to pee alot... but nothing. oh well. I contacted her and she told me I am on her list ... jeez bump me up!!! Anyway I am glad to hear that you are doing well. After not hearing anything before you came back, I called GHC Eastside but they told me you must have already checked out. Yeah reading your profile you checked out the day before I called... Big hurry to go home were ya?? lol Have a great night and lets get this board a hoppin...
Let me tell you!! I was in a big hurry to get home. I wanted to be left alone to sleep! Everytime I would doze off, my favorite nurse Dwight would come wake me up and make me walk! Actually he was a reallllly great nurse! And hella funny too! I owe my speedy recovery in the hospital to him! My other favorite nurse, Jan, was a peach! She washed my back for me the first night with a warm hand towel and it felt like heaven. She also brought me ice cold wash cloths for my forehead and neck, heaven again. I was treated like a queen! But I wanted to sleep in my own bed. Sorry things are going slowly for you. I does feel like they are being very condescending doesn't it? I felt that way, like they were just telling me that I was "on her list" just to get me off their back. Grrr! It is very frustrating but worth it in the end.
Take care sweetie,
Lori
Hi Sandy! Yes I only took two weeks off. But the week I came back was only 3 days. And my boss told me to work half days so this is my first "real" week back. I still get really tired in the afternoons but I can deal with it. I started taking my B12 at lunchtime so that gives me more energy to make it through the work day. I am having virtually no pain whatsoever. Trying my dangdest to get my water in. Food is sometimes an issue but it's getting better by the day. I am tolerating things much better this week than last week. Today is 3 weeks post op. Next Wed I will get to start on more solid food. How are things proceeding with you?
Take care,
Lori

Absolutely no progress in my journey to a new me. My phone appt with Harriet was postponed until the 23rd. I'm just waiting to WAIT.
I am so glad to hear all is well with you! I'm a BIG BABY so I'm sure I would have to take at least 3 weeks. I just wish I could start my dang journey already.......
Take care and congrats on the begining of a new YOU!
Sandy
