A little late to this thread, Carolyn, but I will check out the website and we are wishing you all the best and look forward to your post-op posts! You have a great attitude and that's half the battle!
Carolyn,
I will miss you in the waiting room. But look forward to seeing you on "the other side of the mountain" in a few short weeks. Prayers and good wishes coming your way...you should be cresting the top right about now..
I know I've seen this late but I'm thinking of you anyway and wishing you a speedy recovery - look forward to seeing your 'I'm HOME' post on the boards!
My prayer is that your recovery will go much faster than anyone expected. This was hard for me to do, but let go of the pride, and allow people help you after surgery. You deserve it and your body needs it.
