LadySplenda, I had my surgery done at the Richardson Surgery Center. The staff there was awesome! Dianne, yes I am sleeping in the recliner. I try everynight to sleep in the bed, but I always end up in the recliner. It works out to be more comfortable that way. -

I feel pretty good today. Just alot of soreness in my port area. So far I have handled water, broth and jello with no problem. I took liquid tylenol with no problem as well as the small pain pills that Dr. B gave me. I cut them in half and take one piece at a time. I even have managed to get one protein shake down. -
Congrats to you!

Today was an improvement: Dark green underwire with matching panties. My husband is under the impression that I have panties for everyday of the year. He says I must have a 100 pair...I said no..only one in every color that Lane Bryant had that day. Hey what can I say..I can't resist a buy 3 get 3 free sale!
