Thank you all so much. I debated announcing this because of the nature of the surgery but your support means so much to me. I really do appreciate all the prayers, good thoughts and well wishes.

Richard - I've heard that saying.

Ally cat's mom and Pitc9 - I had a lap back in Jan and know that gas pain all too well. I didn't have the kind to let 'rip', lol, but I did have the pain in my side and shoulder. It hurt to breath deep, cough or laugh. Laughing would bring me to tears in seconds. I think I may be dreading that part the most. My dr. explained that the gas is gone quickly but the bruising from it pushing your diaphram is what causes the pain.

I will have to try the peppermint tea, thanks.

Thank again so much. Today I'm keeping busy with getting my house cleaned and in order. Yesterday I got my Dad squared away and I have someone who is going to be taking good care of him for me.

I am saying a prayer for you too, that all will go well and you will soon be a new person and feeling great!

I would stock up on extra pillows though.

I've been meaning to reply to this. I had one a year ago in August and feel so much better! It'll make you feel like a new woman, believe me. Now the pain after the operation isn't much fun but it doesn't last long and before you know it, you'll be healed and so much happier. I hope it went well.

I just spoke with LORI! She is at home and answered the phone herself! She had just been home about 15 or 20 minutes. She sounded GREAT! She said everything went well and she feels really good ... almost so good that it's hard to believe she had major surgery. She said she actually wanted to come home last night ... was ready to eat and get out of there!

WELCOME HOME LORI!!!

Hugs,
Kim

If she was ready to eat first, she MUST be feeling good!

Glad to hear you are back, Lori. Take care.

Glad to hear that Lori is home and feeling so well. Hope that she continues to feel as good when the drugs wear off. Continued thoughts and prayers for a speedy and pain-free recovery.

Thanks for the update Kim.

Lori, so glad to hear that you are back home and hopefully your staff of fur-nurses are taking really good care of you. Here's to a speedy recovery.
