Thank you for all the well wishes

Thank you to everyone for all your kind and caring thoughts and well wishes. They really meant a lot. My surgery went very well and I've been sipping 1oz of water an hour all day. I'm told ill get dinner tonight broth and jello. Looking forward to it . Been doing walks around the hospital with Laura s. Who is also doing great.

So glad to hear from you Susanne and thrilled that you're doing so well!  Please also send my very best to Laura and give her a (gentle) hug from me! 

 Great to hear you and Laura are both recouping well!  Congrats!!

Great news! Did you get to be roomies?
I have been thinking about both of you. Glad to here you are both doing well. Hope to see you at coffee night on Wed.?
Yes jello and broth will taste great but donn't worry you will be sick of it soon enough!
Sip, sip , sip
Walk, walk, walk,
Nap, nap, nap
Hugs to you both!

Didn't get to be roomies but we were just down the hall from each other. Jello and broth were good, as you said tho by the time the next stage of diet comes along I'm sure I'll be more then ready for the next set of foods.

So glad to hear you are on the other side Suzanne and doing well. 2 weeks from Monday I will be joining you on the bench . It is so nice that you and Laura are there together. Keep us all posted on how you are doing. I am very excited to see your many posts of future victories and successes. I am sure you will haver many. How is the pain level? I am trying to mentally prepare myself ;-0

Thanks. Pain level I didn't find to be too bad. right after in recovery I'd say an 6/7 out of 10 and then within a few minutes down to a 2. The gas was the worst pain and walking helped that A LOT. Walk lots. Mostly it felt like I had done a ton of sit ups and the muscles were just really sore over hurting. Good luck to you on your surgery

 Wonderful news!  Congratulations and welcome to the bench!

So glad to hear that you and Laura are doing well.  I am so happy to be able to witness your new lives.  I will be at coffee night on Wed. though I'm not sure that you two will be feeling well enough to make it. But you never know.  :)
