Life is good again!!! extra pic on post 22

;) I owe all my friends on PT an update on me :) . I've got so many good vibes and wishes for my surgery, this was so heartwarming for me! So, now that this surgery is almost 4 weeks behind me, I feel I am ready to show you all how happy I am now :) :)
On september 5th, I got an neurostimulator, to fight the neuropathic pain in my leg. I am still in the trial period, but I can finally say that almost all the pain is gone when my stimulator is on :) . I can walk, I can sit as long as I like; in other words: I am enjoying life again!!! They will take the trial stimulator away in 2 weeks, but I hope to get my defenite stimulator early december!!

YIPPIE!!! LIFE IS GOOD AGAIN!!

Thank you all for the great support; I wish I could send everybody on PT a hug and a "Flemish kiss" (= 3 kisses : right, left, right cheek ;) :) )

This picture is taken 1 week ago. You can see me playing "Memory" with my nephew's 3 daughters. This would have been impossible for me before I had my surgery!!

SIS, this is GREAT news! Just a one-month wait for the permanent one? That is a lot better!

Enjoying life - you just keep doing that! :)

BTW - did you see that your Snoepie is sharing July on the PT Cats Calendar with Oscar and Cole? I guess that makes sense, our kitties are cousins to each other! :D

Ha ha, I know; but here I was trying really hard, because their mom told me that she is NEVER able to beat her daughters in this game! So I tried to remember as much as I could!!! But hey, I failed :o :rolleyes: :o

Oh Lut, I needed a pick me up today and boy, reading this thread surely did it. Thank you. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...4/4_4_1111.gif

WOO HOO!!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/tiger04/hi5.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...erleader-1.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...r04/dance2.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/tiger04/1026.gif

I have LES as I am so thrilled to hear this fantastic news and the pictures of you sitting and smiling with your nephews adorable 3 daughters is just *PRICELESS!!!*

I pray that when you have to disconnect the stimulator, that your pain is at least bearable and not like you had before.

Keep smiling pretty lady and look forward to more brighter and happier days.

I am sure your whole family must be so happy to have you happier!

Thanks, but the doc warned me that the pain will be worse than before; this is because I am addicted to a "painfree" situation now... :( . But hey I know it will be hard; this time I have something wonderful to look forward to :) :) :) .
No doubt: my 4 professional catnurses will take care of their meowmie!!

Lut I'm so happy they have found a way to end your pain. Even if it has to return for a short while. You look so much happier in those pictures. More comfortable.
