In a world of pain... but...

Hi Everyone,

I am punch happy from all the drugs I am presently on. Thighs are the worst and the Jackson Pratt bulbs sticking out on each side of my tummy. I am not eating much, but I am taking Vitamins and drinking Water. The tummy looks really good. The thighs are covered up most of the time with ace bandages but I dont see any hanging skin. The groin really burns from all the stitches, but I am surviving. I am going to take a snooze. WIll try to touch base tonite. Thanks for all the loving!!!

Dunno what I really weigh. Not eating much, but gained Water weight at the hospital and look like the Michelin woman....

Sorry I haven't had a chance to return your call, but I was suprised with two teenagers. Their parents left for 4 days, so I'm an instant mom. I'll try calling you tonight, but GREAT to hear from you.

Glad that you are up and around a little bit. Hopefully you can get those drains out soon and maybe start to feel a little more normal.

Babs -- i so remember the weeks after surgery. You will be blown away at how much better you'll be a week from now. The fun part is the bandages on your thighs will start to actually fall down a little bit as each day goes by. They just will get skinner & skinner as the swelling goes down. Get rest- Drink Water & walk as much as you can because it should help the healing process. I do remember how terribly bruised I was on the inner thighs- that took over a month to go away. Can't wait to see that gorgeous tummy!!!
