I hadn't been able to get back on the net until now, but it definately made my day to hear everything went well. Sleep well tonight Slick (gotta love those drugs!! ). Thanks for the update Gini.

Thank God all went well! Thanks for the update, Gini. Slick will love those morphine drips!

I'm so glad to hear it went well. Anesthesia makes you so dizzy- even when they wouldn't cut anything

Hope that Slick sleeps safe and sound

I just woke up and had to come in here first thing and check on Slick. So glad to hear that the surgery went well and she is resting now. Sending out lots of positive vibes for speedy recovery.

Being up and walking around is a very good thing! Take it easy, Slick and get home soon!

[zoey]

Sending you good thoughts and prayers for your post surgery recovery. Glad it went well!

Hi everyone, Friday 9/15 - almost 9 PM.

I had a call this evening from Slick's friend and she was able to talk very briefly to Slick and also to Slick's Mom.

Apparently the "walking" part is a bit exaggerated. They had her "standing"
and also got her in a chair to sit for a while today.

She has been moved to the next level of care which is a 12th floor ward with five women in the room and one nurse on constant duty.

I am sorry to report that Slick had a terrible day. She told Betty to please just call Gini and tell her I had a really rough day and I am in a lot of pain.

This was to be expected I suppose - but hurts to hear just the same. Even if the cutest male nurse in the world came along, it doesn't sound as though Slick would be in the mood.

Slick does not have a phone in this room - I think she used her own cell phone or the hospital's portable to call Betty. When Betty called the hospital they would not let her talk to Slick - but gave Slick the message and Slick promptly got a phone and called back, but it was a very short conversation.

Connie - I think we need to ask those angels to lift the weight of the pain away from her as soon as possible - or double dose those good drugs.

xxoo to all - I will post more as I learn more.

Aww, thanks for all theupdates, Gini!! I am glad that the opration is over. Now Slick can start with the recovery. It won't be easy, buit we will all help her through it!! Please tell her that

[Killearn Kitties]

Thanks Laurie! I'm glad Slick has had a comfortable night. I'll be holding her up during her walk today too.

For anyone who has contact with Slick, could you let her know my baby girl is home?

What an amazing woman she is - she was so worried about my little girl but had her own thing going on at the same time. I thought about her constantly and I am so glad to see she is doing well.

Thank you, Slick!

Slick is doing GREAT and my little girl is home!

Thanks for the update, Laurie. I hope Slick feels a little better today and that the walk goes well. Will keep her in my prayers.
