Default I'm Home and Feeling Good

Hey everyone thanks for the prayers and support. Everything went well and I am home now. My pod mate Doug did really well also. His wife has the surgery 3 years ago. I'm tired not in too much pain and walking walking walking.
I'm sorry I missed you Kim. It took songer to get back to the room thaan we thought it would. It was so nice of LauraLee and Jennifer to stop by to see me. I really appriciate it.
Lauraledd said I could only post a short noe. I think she may have something there. Talk to you all later.

Glad everything went well and welcome home. Just take it easy and get lots of rest in between sipping, walking and sipping and walking. ((HUGS)))

Default Marcia,

I'm so glad to hear that you are home and doing okay. Yea, I was really disappointed that I missed seeing you. I was there at 6:30 I went to the 3rd floor first, because that's where they usually take you (or 4th). They gave me 212 as your room. I went down to the second floor and then noticed that your room didn't have a bed. I started to panic, went and found the nurses station and asked where you were. They said you were still in recovery. I asked when they thought you would be in your room, they told me 8:00 or 8:30 p.m.

I'm learning that you don't go to the hospital on the day of surgery unless it's really late.

Glad to hear that you're doing okay! Keep us posted!
