After five nights in the hospital I finally got busted loose this afternoon. Whew. The surgery went well, turned out that it was an unusual fibroid. Between that and not eating much I've surely lost some weight. Best news of all is that the final test results say everything is benign. Woohoo.
So good to be home with the kitties. They're doing fine, although they'd gotten a bit skittish. Pokey made it safely to the vets and took her meds. woohoo. They're all happy now and being friendly to me and to Janet. Pokey even slept on me some this afternoon. I'm just making sure to have a big pillow across my belly every time I sit down.Thank you all so much for the well wishes. I appreciate each of you so much. Take care.
YAY! Rest up and Get Well Soon!
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about you, and hoping all went well with the surgery. I'm glad you are home again with your kitties (who I am sure missed you terribly), and hope you heal from the surgery quickly.
ReplyDeleteTake care, and looking forward to your new posts once you are back to feeling better!
great news. put that pillow on your belly when you laugh or sneeze too. get well soon!
ReplyDeleteIt's so great to have you back safe and once again sound...well almost sound. Hugs to you and the kitties, Speedy healing thoughts coming your way.
ReplyDeleteSO glad to hear of the good test results. Those things are always so anxiety-producing until you get the results, aren't they? Our 27-year-old daughter is having a surgery this week of a suspicious lump and we are quite concerned and anxious about it. I hope her results are as good as yours.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad surgery and tests went well!

Hi Tonya,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are healing well...I've missed hearing about your creative world and your fabulous kitties over the last few weeks. I hope you are feeling like your old, fabulous self again real soon!!
Very cool quilt. I've never seen anything like it. It was kind of a fun surprise to realize there were letters in it. It's very neat. And, I love the reindeer quilt below. We have that panel at the quilt shop I work at and the names around it are a great and creative idea!
ReplyDeleteGlad everything was benign! Good health to you!
