123'ers! Happy Surgiversary!
April reminded me in her post.
Here we are, 3 months out! Has it been easier or more difficult than you imagined? Is it becoming easier? Has it gone fast for you or does it seem like an eternity?
Thanks to you and to everyone on this list for the friendship and support. I know I look forward to it every day.

Hi Chele,
Great idea--
For me it's been a mixed review:
Eaier not to eat and keep the rules- never thought I could be so focused
Harder: the c-diff infection really got me, but doing great now.
Overall, no one can prepare you for this physical/emotional journey. I sense from this forum we all put huge efforts into preparing for this surgery and that has helped each of us. I also applaud the sharing environment and positive support. We each have our own challenges and paths to follow and respectfully acknowledging those differences is essential. Thanks for letting me share--

Melissa I got on hoping I'd hear something about your surgery today and I'm so glad I did!! I'm glad to hear you kicked the fever isn't that a b****?? I had a fan put in my room and by the time they turned it on I was freezing...go figure!
I'm muddling through trying to find my way and I hope you'll be home soon and we can figure this whole post op thing out together.
Love ya
Jamie
