Just spoke with Carrie. She got out of the hospital this afternoon. Michael and Zac are going to drive down tonight and then bring her home in the morning and she should be on the couch tomorrow probably around noon. The ride from the Hat to I believe her sister in laws house was a painful one but she is now resting. She is going to try to eat something. She said beside the pain of the surgery when she eats there is no pain. Hopefully now she will be able to eat and drink more and get stronger with no pain after she recovers from the surgery.

She made it home today. The drive from the hat to red deer was really hard on her. She wanted me to let you know that she is alive and will post as soon as she feels like getting on line...

Carrie,
I am so pleased that you're home and on the mend. It makes me so happy that you can now eat without the intense pain...I only wish the d*mn drs would have taken care of it when you first complained.
(((Carrie)))

hi everyone, wow, thank you so much for the well wishes, the caring on this board is overwhelming, i have lots to say, but going to keep it short right now, had my shower and now need a nap - i dont want to complain, but lets just say, this surgery was much harder than i expected. I have lots of help and support so i will recover just fine, no worries there.

again thank you to everyone, jen for updating everyone and keeping me sane in the hospital with the many phone calls and texting - love ya more than you know sis.

tawna - your visit was so incredible - and that figurine you brought me, is now diplayed in my glass stand for all to see - it is so amazing, i will post a pic of it for all to see here later - it is called sisters by heart and well its amaizngly beautiful.

leah - thank you for all your hard work - cleaning my house, having crockpot chicken ready for me when i got home yesterday - so kind of you, there are not enough words to thank you.

to my lisa - for checking up on me and sending me your strength - i felt it everyday

to my duckie for the calls and texting and your wub - i wub you

to everyone for their posts and well wishes and sending me strength and healing power - you are all so special to me
