***Home from Johns Hopkins, surgery DONE!!!

[elleng]

Now cool of the house, organize a few things, and prepare for post-op visits to GP, tomorrow and Monday. Details later. LOVE Hopkins' staff.

HOT here, so will take a while to settle in, and wait for TYLENOL acetaminophen to kick in, had to go to grocery store to pick it up (with wound covering 'hidden' by a cap. My head/hair does not look great NO pain of note, really. but slight ache in my side.

Onward!!!

21. terrific photos! Glad to hear everything went well! Now rest...recover...

[duhneece]

35. Now, can we picture you with your feet up, recuperating?

Or would that be an alternative fact?

[elleng]

36. Good idea, but t'storm just began, so chair w river view and feet up is OUTSIDE!

[duhneece]

37. Better yet. Outside is delicious

I came up to the mountains, National Park outside of Cloudcroft, NM.
It’s hot in La Luz, outside of Alamogordo.
I had to euthanize my 17 year old beloved dog two days ago. I’m simply fractured so I guess I’m recuperating, too.

May your recovery be quick, complete and easy.

[elleng]

15. Thanks for thinking of me. This is 'funny,' I awoke in a big room, not knowing where I was,

waited and waited for action, finally felt my abdomen, felt something, thought O WOW, I'll bet I'm in recovery! It was OVER!!!

[MontanaMama]

12. Happy to hear this
