Hey Fluff

It is 6.30am, outside a tropical cyclone rages, I have been up monitoring the city - and thinking of you. Hope the recovery is beginning.

oh yes, and have you heard - sip sip sip, walk walk walk... 😁

Fluffy, time to stir. Fluff and smooth those feathers and tell me how things are going. Have you started the sipping and walking? Remember you got to stir them drumsticks today GIRL. Looking for a change in my status, gonna call,Columbus once again. I'm planning to be their worst nightmare, I'm going to lurk like a garden variety predator until I get an answer..

Thanks to each of you for warming my heart and making me feel your love and support!!! ((hugs))

Surgery went so smoothly. The hardest thing was the anesthesiologist trying to get a vein with the iv catheter. They stuck me like 13 times! NO kidding! But the nurse anesthetist was giving me laughing gas and anesthesia by then and we were talking and laughing and telling jokes while he was suffering trying to find a vein! Luckily the iv in my finger held until they took it out today!

I am sipping/walking/having Clear Liquids today and tomorrow--then on to full liquids and Protein drinks. I just weighed (at night) lol, and I'm up 5 lbs from anesthesia but that's fine. I will lose it. Also I appear to be full of sh*t! The surgeon said my colon had a ton of stool that I need to get cleaned out! Sorry for TMI! But apparently pooting and pooping are big things to them! I finally pooted tonight! HA!

The real challenge is limiting myself to 4oz per hour! I'm able to drink very easily. I have very little pain and am controlling it now with tramadol and gabapentin. I'm doing so well! Walking, sipping, visiting, napping in my recliner and watching movies!

Thank you to all for your prayers and support! I love each of you. I can't believe I finally had the surgery and it's over! I will tell you, that my desire/cravings for food right now are non-existent. And it really doesn't bother me to be on clear liquids. Also, the surgeon said it went so well. I had some adhesions that she removed and that my liver was pink and beautiful and that it was a very easy surgery! Yeeeehawwww! I'm on the losers' bench with ya now!!!

((hugs))
