Just a quick update...

Apr 20, 2009

Not a lot new going on here.  I'm doing pretty well.  I'm down to my 'goal weight' from my doctor, but I want to and know I really need to loose another 20 pounds.  I'd love to have a tummy tuck, but know that it adds the risk of additional surgery.  And, given my 'bad luck' thus far with my clotting I'm very wary to have surgery that is elective!  So, for now, I'm waiting.

I continue to have problems with my leg.  Chronic swelling and pain.  However I'm learning to live with it and make the best of it.  Right now I can't afford the surgery that Dr. Peden said would help.  I have my nice compression hose that I wear daily.  My 9 year old daughter thinks it is hilarious, but they do really help with the swelling!  I'm a bit disappointed that shorts and capri's won't be an option this summer!  I guess I'll just be hot in my pants!

That's about it for now!
