Kristen-

I'm so sorry to hear about you having another back surgery. Please take it easy when you come home, you can clean later on when you feel better. I hope someone is there to help you with the litter boxes and such.

I wish I lived near you or I'd try to help you out.

Take care,
Melissa

Hi Kirsten,
I've been away for a week, so haven't been up to date on your progress until this evening. I'm so sorry to hear that you have to go back to hospital mate.
I think the important thing here is to heed everyones advice about cleaning.
Leave it Kirsten, it doesn't matter if you leave it for a while. Your place can be cleaned and tidied up after you have had sufficient rest and well on the way to healing. YOU are more important than a clean house.
Just relax and rest and tend to the kitties.

Thank you so much for your support!!

I'm really scared to go back to the hospital, especially I fear the nausea after anaesthesia! I felt so terribly ill after the last one, and I just don't want to go through it again!!

At least it looks like the lump hasn't grown for two days. Maybe that means that whatever it was that's been leaking out has stopped by now. And maybe, if it has stopped, they won't open the entire incision but just puncture it. I don't know if that's going to happen, but I really really hope it may come to this, and I can avoid surgery. But maybe it's just wishful thinking...

My prays are with you.

My kitties and I are all sending our love and prayers and good wishes and healing energies that the surgery goes well and you recover comfortably and completely, never to be plagued by those pains again.

Thank you!

Well, I wish I had better news, but since yesterday, my condition is going downhill fast. Since Friday, there are spasms in my left foot (had them before I had surgery, but they were gone right after the surgery), and there's definitely a weakness in my left leg. I figure it's either the fluid from the lump or a new disc hernia that's putting pressure onto the nerves. Guess there's no way to avoid a new surgery, and I'm going back to hospital on Monday.

I'm so sorry I have to leave my girls again, it really breaks my heart!! Luna hasn't left my side this morning, she really tried to comfort me. She's such a sweetheart, but I know she and Lily will suffer when I'm not at home!
