Ok all, I'll be leaving in a couple of hrs for my surgery. Just gotta take a deep breath and roll thru the front door at the hospital. My daughter will post later today (hopefully) and let you all know how it went. I'm sure it will be fine,and I know I will have a nerve block also, so I don't expect any pain today. What happens after that heaven only know. Hopefully, I'll be back sometine next week. everyone take care.

You are in my thoughts and prayers today (and so is the doc!). Tell your daughter to try and relax a bit also- they say waiting is the hardest part.

Take care, good luck and heal (no pun intended) fast! :wave:

Hey everyone it's the daughter with the post-surgery news.
Everything went fine in surgery, no issues. She's enjoying the fact that there is a nerve block right now but it looks like it's gonna be pretty painful when that wears off :( But other than that everything looks good and she's resting in her hospital room right now. That's pretty much all the news I have for now, the Doc said she may only have to be in for the weekend, but her first sponge change won't be till monday, so we'll see how that goes. I'll post updates as needed and check back to give her any msgs and what not!

You are in my prayers, :angel: that you will be able to keep the pain under control, rest, and heal!!! After such a long, wearying ordeal, you are now on the road to recovery. Soon, you will dance! :bouncing: Kim

:wave: Daughter~
You, too are in my prayers. Watch over your Mom, and encourage her, but also take good care of yourself, and don't get worn out. Post when you can to let us know how it's going. Thank you for taking the time to let us know. Kim

Dear Mary-

So happy to hear the nerve block is doing it's job for you and that the surgery went well. Sending happy healing thoughts your way. You are still in our prayers, especially for Monday. I am doing the happy Snoopy dance for you-:wave:

Dear daughter-

I also say thanks for letting us know how things are going. After a long (I'm sure) day at the hospital you then had to get online and "fill us in". What a good gal! Take care and sleep when you can, we can wait (but not too long ha ha). Give your mom a hug from all of us and make sure to give yourself one also-;)

So glad to hear the surgery went well.

Daughter - I'm wondering if a 'post op pain pump' would help your mother. There is lots of information on-line about them. It might be worthwhile to ask the doc about it.

Mary - Best wishes for a quick recovery and time with your horses in the not-too-distant future!

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. :) I'm praying for you!

Hoping it's not to long before you are back on your feet!

Happy Healing,
-Britt
