6 month valversary

[ctyguy]

Yesterday was the six month mark since my surgery. Im back to normal in just about every respect. I had 3 beers last night to celebrate along with a big bowel of caso (sp ?) dip and chips. I'm even back to using a regular razor blade ! I ran 4 miles this AM, not sure if that negated the beers and chips and dip in regards to calories but Im thrilled that I can use running as a way to burn calories, certainly I couldn't 6 1/2 months ago.

So to all of you who are out there waiting on your surgery, stay strong and keep a positive attitude. Once you get to the other side of your procedure you can get back to a very normal existence. With that added bonus that life seems just that much sweeter. OHS tends to peel away all the crap in your life and forces you to focus on what is truely important.

Congratulations Scott,

My six month milestone meant a lot to me also in 2001. I celebrated at 7 months in Nashville with fellow vr.com members at my first vr.com reunion. Okay, so it was also around my b-day too! Isn't it wonderful, to feel so good? May you have many more celebrations.

I had my surgery Feb 4 so I just had my 6 month anniversary,
it's a definite milestone and I'm glad you are doing so well.

Congratulations, Scott! Reading the good news in your post means a lot to those of us who haven't had surgery yet.

I like the part about the three beers....

Best wishes,
