Renie made it through the surgery with flying colors! We went to the surgery center at 10:45 this morning, they took her to the O.R. about 12:45 and the surgery was done by 3:30. Both surgeons stopped in separately and said that the procedures had gone extremely well. She was out of recovery and back to her room around 5 pm. She dozed for a while, then had dinner and was watching "HGTV" by 7 pm! Her pain is not too bad (a combination of Demerol and Percocet is helping with that) and she was in good spirits when they kicked me out at 8 pm. She should be discharged around 11 am tomorrow and will be back home to recuperate. She asked me to thank everyone for your warm wishes and positive thoughts!

Bob,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update. Great to hear how well things went for Renie today... and to be able to come home tomorrow to the comforts of home and your loving care!
Renie,
I'll be watching for your next message. You must be relieved to have the surgery behind you and soon on the road to recovery.
Best wishes and let's talk soon.
Karen
Hi Renie,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! You did it! Now it's time to kick back and start the healing process. I'll see you on Friday for a Reiki session. In the meantime, I want to leave you with this quote from Deena Metzger:
"A sacred illness is one that educates us and alters us from the inside out, provides experiences and therefore knowledge that we could not possibly achieve in any other way, and aligns us with a life path that is, ultimately, of benefit to ourselves and those around us."
Blessings to you on your healing journey,
Mary
