It’s three weeks yesterday since my surgery. I am doing well all things considered. I still ache, and I’m still tired, but I’m healing, and I’m grateful that I can be as up and around as I am. My attitude remains the same as before the surgery. There were a million things that could go right, and [...]

I have the best friends and family in the world. Christmas Eve supper here was orchestrated and for the most part excecuted very well, with Roomie taking the lead, minime doing her share, and me mostly just doing a minor amount of cooking and some of the dishes afterward. My brother and his family attended, and with [...]

I’m still sleeping a lot, recovering. Here’s a meme that I found that didn’t make me think too hard: 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I like wrapping, for the first couple of rounds… after that bags are fine. It usually ends up a pretty good mix under the tree 2. Tree – Real or [...]

Life just gets more and more interesting. I’m nearly 2 weeks post op now. Healing pretty well, but still very tender and tire easily. I was talking to a friend yesterday and she mentioned dreams. I’ve been pretty lucky so far with them. A lot of women that go through surgical menopause have very strange [...]

Between fluid retention (swelly belly) and just general lack of interest in eating (that’s coming back) I didn’t know which way it would [...]

I am home now. I had surgery more than a week ago. I feel like it too, but, as they say, there’s no place like home. I have just been through one of those “tests” that life throws at you. I am healing from major surgery, and as much as I believe I’m cured of [...]

I’m up, and OK. It was a couple of rough days, the worst is behind me though. I’ll be here for a couple more days. That’s OK too. I’m being well taken care of here and not keeping anyone up needing help all hours of the night. It’s been an experience. I’ll be glad to [...]

I’m having it. I’ll post when I get home. Cancer free. Say a prayer. Thanks. PS. The best line of the day, at Walgreens, buying the bowel prep stuff. The clerk does her thing, rings me up, puts it in the bag, looks me straight in the eye, smiles, and says: “Have a good one”
