You ladies are doing GREAT!! I don't own a scale so I will have to give my weight after getting my drain tube out tomorrow. Today was the first day I've felt ok. Just ok. Lol. I still have to take my pain meds but I didn't feel like death warmed over. I actually was able to straighten up a little and cook dinner for my family. Now I am going to lay back and relax. I have someone coming to the house to give me a pedicure at 5pm and I can't wait!! I soooo need this but can't get to the shop.

Prayers for you preemie mommy. I sure hope all is well. I saw dr today. My dr did a hand assist and originally I saw a large bruise. Yesterday morning the area turned an angry red it was hot. And I worried about infection. The dr took one look and said bruise. I was relieved. I'm so glad I went to see the dr though. Better safe than sorry. I love my dr. He is chief resident surgeon at Good Sam and has the best bedside manner. Dr Kerlakian you are the BEST.

Hi ladies, doing well. They thought a possible blood clot. They gave me an ultra sound on my legs and chest ct. All turned out negative. I had shortness of breath and calves hurt. They chalked it up to dehydration. So everyone, sip sip sip. Thanks for the prayers!
