Surgery was uneventful, now for the recovery
I had my knee surgery this morning —- in at 9:40, back to recovery at 10:15, headed home at 11:35, and home by 12:15. The operation was uneventful, we have pictures too, and the Dr took care of some other “disease” that was in there too while everything was open. I’m on pain pills but that doesn’t mean the pain is gone. Thanks for the prayers everyone.
DH’s here and I asked him to work from home tomorrow too. They said I might be driving a car in 3 or 4 days. Now we just need to recover, do the exercises—toe moving today and quad crunches tomorrow, and hopefully I’ll soon back to walking…..
DH is off to find the photos and the instructions on what I am allowed to do, and not allowed to do over the next several days. Should have kept them in my hot, little hands……. well, he found the photos and my ice bag but not the discharge papers.
My friend Michele was a sweet-heart and brought us dinner. Ummm it was so good. Chicken breasts baked with a seasoned mayonnaise sauce, green beans, noodles, salad with an awesome blueberry vinaigrette, and desert. DH wouldn’t try the vinaigrette; his lose, my gain since there’s more for me to have on my next salad. When I get the recipe from her I’ll post it here. Thank you so much, and the flowers are beautiful too.

Glad you are home and that the surgery was uneventful. I wish you a speedy and uneventful recovery as well. Be prepared for physical therapy, there is a reason we refer to it as pain and torture! I have been reading your blog through my aggregator, so I haven’t been to your actual site in a while. I like the new look.
