I'm home had my surgery 31/10/11
Please make room for me on the bench. So ready for this new venture. Like everyone else, long wait emotional ups and downs. Each day I feel stronger and so grateful for friends and family. 3 weeks OF, 1 week post op and some of the health changes already include:
Off Humlog insulin 45 units daily
Off Lantus insulin 64 units daily
leg doesn't hurt (amazing what some bedrest and light walking will do...and some pain meds)
Looking at my goal of going on a kayak adventure this summer.
I hope you all realize what a wonderful support group you all are. No looking backwards at what happened but only what will be happening.
