Morning Bozos!

I am typing in the dark on the mini-ipad keyboard.  Anything might happen!

Lordy, "you will need assistance with getting up" is the understatement of the century. But, that isn't my real issue.  They kept me overnight (my doc is the ultimate "this is a day surgery gal") because one drain in particular is draining prolifically.  I was "borderline" to go back into surgery last night. She will decide late morning today if she needs to go back in. Healing thoughts, please? Whoops didn't want a question mark but can't seem to find exclamation point on this keyboard. 

Enjoyed reading your posts in what I consider to be nighttime. Carbon is likely getting fired up to post so I better hit send so there isn't the dreaded duplicate post.

Good morning everyone.   Shel, hopefully by the time you read this all drains will have minimal drainage.    Day surgery????   Good grief!!!!!!  Take care!!!

so yesterday rigged up this system for standing at my desk as unable to sit as per " the leg" and by the end of the day was in tears of pain.   Taking the day off to try and ind someone who can help NOW.   A Nov MRI seems an unbearably long time to wait.   The only snag is that in our small and somewhat remote area choices are limited.   Can but try. 

thank you for all the kind wishes.   

Hope that everyone is keeping on and that the travellers have smooth roads ahead.  

This Tuesday is going to be a great day!!!!!!!

Carbon!  I hope you get some help, soon!  Are you allowed to go to a different region that has better availability?

PS. I have a guest room in Seattle.....

Oh my !!  Someone else is on mighty pain meds !! BOGO is a label I always gravitate toward.... BOZO... not so much !! I'll be curious to learn what that auto correct was, LOL !

Glad they kept you to identify and address drainage issues. Many positive thoughts your way !!

141.4 today. Continuing to flush fluids. I've accepted the fact that Monday's Josh Groban concert is not an option. Having my leg down more than 4-5 minutes causes unbearable discomfort. Everything happens for a reason.

Moving forward, together ! We've all got this as we navigate vacation, relatives, new life styles, temptation, health issues ... and life.

Bozo wa actually correct.  Mary post late yesterday referred to being just another bozo on the bus.  I thought we could show solidarity by being bozos with her :)

Nice to see you posting so soon Shel. Hope the draining has slowed down and they don't have to go back in! How is the pain level? How long did the surgery take? Here's to speedy healing!

128 on the dot. Good day eating yesterday and got in just over 14,000 steps with a walk at lunch and another after dinner! No "junk" entries in MFP yesterday, so at least that is something!

Lots of healing thoughts for my compatriots today.
