Still drugged up today. Walking stiff and hunched over. My folks are taking care of me . Thank goodness. No way I could do it on my own. Glad I had it done. My butt is a solid bruise. Stomach is swollen. Still have 3 drainaige tubes. Some will come out later this week. Just wanted to update you guys. It was not a walk in the park but the view will be awsome. Yeah drugs.

I had to post and talk about my challenge tomorrow. I will be walking the 5K in the Detroit Free Press Marathon. I decided to sign up to support a friend who is in a wheel chair and raising money for spinal research. This is something that I would not have been able to do before surgery. I still have arthritic knees and have to do low or non-impact type workouts, but I am very excited to walk in this race tomorrow. I still struggle greatly with my weight and disappointment for not having met the amount of weight loss I had hoped for. I am still trying, but basically have not lost anything since Christmas - I've just bounced around the scale. I'm trying to focus on how good I feel and how good everyone tells me that I look and not think about the numbers! Anyway, I know there will be thousands of people there and maybe even some of you.
My thoughts and prayers are with you Robin as you recover and heal from such a difficult ordeal..... I am sure you will be just fine, it just takes time to heal. Good Luck and God be with you! (if you believe).

I have a friend that had Grave's disease and her thyroid removed, but it wasn't cancer. This was like 8 years ago she had it done, takes thyroid meds and is doing well. Don't know if that helps or not. Did you or someone you know recently get diagnosed with cancer? If so I am so sorry and best wishes on treatment and a healthy recovery.
