Wow Dan, way to go! 👊🏻💪🏻🥳 It's so uplifting to hear stories like this because it's tempting to give in to the fear that I won't be able to do the active things I love after surgery—for me that's hiking and swimming! You've inspired me! ❤️🩹

Sue and Jane, I too, early on in recovery, wondered if I had made a big mistake having surgery. Now looking back it was well worth the journey. Take Good Care! 💔❤️🩹❤️
