I DID IT!! I am now on the other side as of the 14th!! I want to thank my husband for being there and giving me my meds on time, taking my vitals and doing EVERTHING I need!! I also want to thank DEBI TROUTMAN, my ANGEL. I met her on-line and she by chance lives in town and she has been so involved in my journey and I could not imagine having to go through this without her!
AND, THANK YOU! Everyone's comments on my surgery comment page really helped and I printed quite a few of them out for encouragement when I needed it. SO, I just want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. I made it through just fine and everyone here and my husband made it possible for me to make it through with flying colors. I am doing very well and go back to get the staples and the drain out on Wednesday, it is Sunday now. I look forward to getting them out so I don't have to be so careful of how I sleep at night.
