I'm out

I'm out.  Feels like I was in for a week.  Last night was not fun or restful for a number of different reasons (music man was replaced by a very high maintenance grumpy woman) so I can't explain how good it was to get out today around noon.  Have had some rest and good food, and mom managed to pick up meds and post-op supplies while I slept, so I am set. Drains and pain still a big challenge and will be for a while but overall I am doing well.  Dr. Graham was there when I left which was great.

Another phase done. Thanks again.

Hurrah! I guess there really is no place quite like home, especially when the people who love you most are looking after you. Actually, we've heard that a hospital is the worst place to be when you're recovering. And - we can say it now - another phase is done and you are recovering!

Managing the pain must be a top priority for you now. If anyone knows, from past experience, exactly how to do that, it's you.

Be good to yourself, Tricia, and don't hesitate to call on your army of supporters, near at hand and far away, for whatever you need.

We are sending an abundance of warmth and energy across the miles tonight, Louise and David

(Hugs to Marie and Lui, too!)

Thanks Tricia. It's good that you're at home where you can rest and recover without all the noise and activity that happens in the hospital. You're in the best of hands with your Mom & Dad.
We send lots of love and prayers to all.
Bob & Mary Ellen xoxo
