Yay Nana, glad to see you're home and all is well.

Hey Jessica! i guess we're podmates! I'm so excited, I was actually thinking about starting to pack my bag tonight too, but think I'll wait. I was just going over my paperwork from the doc and making a list of a few last minute things I need to go shopping for... LOL, polish remover to take off my polish, etc.

I can't call until 3:00 p.m. tomorrow afternoon to get my show and go times for Monday. I can't wait!

I am home and doing well. I had my surgery Monday at 3:30Pm, it lasted under two hours, but I was in the recovery area until after 8:00PM. My BP went really low and stayed that way for a little while (that happened with my C-section also). I started walking early tuesday morning and am still doing as much as possible. I left the hospital around noon on Wednesday. I feel pain, so I am grateful for the pain meds. Other then the normal pain I am doing well. Sipping, walking and resting a great deal of the time.

Good luck to everyone with their upcoming dates...I am going to go rest again.

Hello and welcome home Tazchic. That sounds scary about your BP, but I'm glad it straightened out. I hope your pain subsides soon, and you start feeling better. Best of luck.
