I'm baaaaccccckkk....
Hi Karen,
Glad to hear that you are recovering well and I am sure once you get to your own home, you will feel so much better. Now, remember i am retired right now, so I would be more than happy to come by one day and keep you company and help out. If you need to get out to do something, just let me know. Or you just want someone to chat to.
If you send me a PM, i will give you my phone number or home e-mail address.
Take care and hope to see you soon.
Liz

Sounds like you've had some ups and downs.
Remember... A hysterectomy causes "swelly belly" and it takes 4-6 weeks minimum to go down most of the way and up to 6 months to do it completely. Not fun but it is common...
Sorry it didn't end up being supracervical like it was suppose to be... * more gentle hugs*

Dr Sullivan VSG Jan. 8th, 2013!
Lost 100 lbs in a year post op with a VSG.
So glad to hear that you are back and A-Okay! The bleed must have caused you some panic! I am sure Bryan and Kirby, though I'm sure he (Kirby), will greet you then promptly ignore you the way cats do. Hahaha! Hope you continue to heal well and have time to enjoy being at home in the next 6 weeks. I'm envious (not of your incision and pain, obviously, but of your impending hiatus from work!) :D

Karen: So glad you are healing and being looked after...when you get home, please take it easy!! Sorry I didn't make it to the hospital, I had a couple of Pastoral Care issues in my congregation to look after and then developed a bit of a cold on the weekend. Of course, the hospital frowns on us Clergy coming in and making people sick!!!
Sending healing energy your way my friend,
Blessings,
Kim
