sickofrollercoaster 7 Posted May 8, 2010 Well, just a little update, was supposed to leave BWI at 5:10 and the left engine would not turn over so about 1.5 hours later, they got it fixed and we are on our way, love having wifi on the plane! Mom is at the hotel near DFW, we will leave tomorrow morning for San Diego and then on to Mexicali! I took my daughter's pillow, has cute little hearts all over it (already had a few looks from other passengers...). This is my oldest and she has the worst time with me leaving so I gave her my pillow and took hers, I hope this helps her get through the next 5 days. I will update as I can and also give Mom a tutorial on VSGtalk so she can update if I am unable to after surgery. Take care! If anyone is on Chat right now, you got my undivided attention for the next 3 hours! Long flight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ouroborous 519 Posted May 9, 2010 You'll be great! As I'm discovering, the first few days post-op can be a little rocky, but if you follow your doc's orders to the letter and remember to sip and walk (dehydration will just make you feel miserable!), you should be fine!
