For those of you who took the time to let me know how much you care, I very much appreciate you.
Surgery was Friday and for all intents and purposes, it went well. I had to stay in the hospital a little longer than anticipated but I am on the road to recovery now. It's very slow and I am pretty much sleeping through most of it. I am far from steady on my feet but they say I should begin to feel myself again within 2-3 weeks.
Your prayers helped me a lot. I am going to take this time to really rest myself up as much as I can but you are often in my thoughts.

You have been in our thoughts and prayers. Rest and mend. I know it will be hard for you once you start feeling a little better , but it is time for you to slow down and catch up on some downtime!
Pipers and I are relieved to hear your surgery went well. Now we expect to behave yourself and rest. Otherwise Pipers will be forced to come take care of you. You know what that means? Lots of mice! So just remember calories don't count while you are recouperating. Make sure to get plenty of rest and eat well. Take good care of yourself. Love and blessings to you and your family.
Live strong, Karilynn & Pipers Kitty

Steady as she goes and do not rush around. You are totally surrounded by prayer and I even got my Prayer chain involved.
Remember, this is the beginning. Do not rush things. Let your system recover from the shock. I so feel for you. It takes time. Do things that you would not normally do, sit and listen to music, read a book, watch the sun rise and set if you cannot sleep and if you do sleep do not worry about the time. Turn the clock to the wall and go with your body. Let it dictate to you. Bodies are good at that if only we let them speak to us and we heed the messages they are giving us.
Prayers will continue during the next six weeks and more if necessary. keep in touch when you feel able.
Lots of tlc and hugs heading out to you across the wintery night here heading due west to you. Suzannah
