Hi Pam, just checking on you! How you doing? I joined the site today, have surgery scheduled for April 9th. I'm terrified, and tried to meditate today but made the mistake of having my two Malemutes inside. They looked at me in a very mindful way, then started getting frisky. So much for that! Pets are so loving.................

Hello Pam. Great news that you are out and with your nurse friend. It was just as you had hoped I guess! Your friends and the things you organized prior to your surgery have seemingly worked out as you had hoped. You are very lucky to have such a "team" surrounding you and your care in recovery! Did you ever work out about "washing your hair!". It sounds like you stayed on top of your care, kept aware of what your body was telling you and that all has worked out as you would have wanted! I hope your "boys" are gentle with you once you are back at home as I am sure they have missed you and I have no doubt from the sounds of how you are progressing that getting them in and out of the "magic slider door "that your
brother fixed will be of no problem for you. I think having out pets around is a great bonus to our healing process and I can see you taking walks with them and
enjoying some fresh air. Listen to your body and do what it is telling you! Wishing you great healing days ahead! Take care.

Pam,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for the time of surgery and the name of your hospital. Also thanks that your friend will post until you are ready to again. Relax as best you can. Get a good sleep tonight. Remember your meditation. Ask questions as they pop into your head.
You are strong and a survivor. There are hundreds of us praying for you, and God has graciously been answering our prayers. Lean on Him for strength and know that you are loved greatly.
With hugs and prayers I will be checking for your good news,
Ginger
