As you'll know we'll miss seeing each other unless I can just come to visit and explain to Ivy about my home health care coming to help me. Hoping you're still improving and pain is less for you. Keep those staple areas washed and clean!!!

Answered prayers. Congrats are in order for joining the club. I'll see you at the meeting Wednesday at noon with Ivy. I'm so happy for you.

Hi everyone! I spoke with Melissa this afternoon and after actually over-sleeping this morning and getting to the Hospital late, she is finally on the "other" side!!! :) *HAPPY DANCE!!!* She's doing okay right now.. she's in a lot of pain. The pain pump isn't all that helpful, she informed me. She said the surgery lasted about 3 hours.. she remembers being in the Operating Room and the next thing she knew, she was in Recovery. She also said her throat is very dry.. I'm assuming from the tube being in there during the procedure. I'm going to talk with her again tomorrow so I'll post after that conversation! CONGRATULATIONS MELISSA!!! I'm so proud of you!!! Deena :)

Hey Melissa! I noticed you don't have an angel yet... I'd love to be yours!! I wanted to ask your permission first before I submitted my name? Since I'm going to be talking to you (and/or seeing you) in the Hospital, I can update everything on your message board for you! Let me know!
