Great news...I'm being discharged!!! They would have let me go home last night but I said I would wait until today. The nurses said I was their favourite and the only one that followed the rules which is why I get to go home. Lol. I had some painful moments throughout the 3 days for sure but I forced myself out of bed to walk. I even had a brief moment of " what the hell have I done!" But that's all gone and feel pretty darn good. Looking forward to a good shower and sleep when I get home. I have to say the staff here have been amazing! Wouldn't hesitate to come back to this hospital for anything. Thank you for all your support, well wishes and messages. It has truly been overwhelming and I thank you. ??

So glad you are feeling better and are home. Thanks for sharing your experience. My surgery is Monday and I'm glad I know what to really expect. If I have a moment of "what the heck did I do", I will now know that in a few days I will feel better. I bet that shower felt fantastic! lol

Remember every hour you get just a tiny bit better. You need to change your surgery in your handle.

Go into the profile you set up for yourself and edit. It is in your profile then hit the gear box (tools) and medical history. It should then show on your handle. If that doesn't work - send Kathy a message...she is all knowing.
