Yep - back home!

[abbanabba]

Thank you all so very very much for all of your support and well wishes through all of this. I'm so sorry there was no update on the blog, but it seems the big post my BF wrote never made it on (I told him he should have been taking notes when I walked him through it!! ).

I'm still feeling pretty stiff and sore and probably wont be spending a lot of time on the 'puter in the next week or so since it's not the most comfortable position to be in, but I'll be checking in time to time and letting you know how I'm going.

So far things are looking pretty good and I've been out and about for a few walks and have even managed to wash my hair a couple of times, although my BF has had to help me dry it. Meanwhile, he has been fantastic all through this and is doing a great job of getting everything done at home. He even set me up a "ski-rope" like I had in hospital to help me move around and get in and out of bed.

All I can say is I'm a very lucky girl!...bring on 2009!!

Welcome home, Abbanabba! So glad to read your post!

I have been thinking about you and wondering how things went. As others say, there is no place like home. Take it easy, continue to get your rest and I am really happy that the BF is taking good care of you.

Continuing my prayers for you and sending positive thoughts for an uneventful and smooth recovery.
