It is amazing to me that only 4-month post op, you can handle a 12+ hours work day plus all the daily chores of being a mom! Congratulation on your smooth recovery! You are setting a great example of how a successful OHS recovery can be! I am very happy... Read more.

BTW - I am a pediatrician who rounds in the nursery and attends high-risk deliveries at my local hospital. I know what type of work you do. You really have healed quickly!
