Surgery went well. Recovery will be slow. I am well taken care of and I appreciate all your prayers and good wishes. My pain is much less after surgery than before surgery, the doctor removed much more arthritis than he anticipated. All good...now to heal.
We have a change in plans and I will do part of my recovery in East Grand Forks at Jen, Andy and Sadies home.
I finally finished my Mosaic Afghan "Hush" the day before I had surgery.
It is just as pretty from the front as it is in the back. I am very pleased with it and have started another project to replace it.
I will be back when possible.

That is good news. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update. I am glad you are in less pain already. And thanks for thinking of those of us who wondered how it went.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update - more prayers to come.
ReplyDeletePlease be kind to yourself, and to the ones taking care of you, by asking for help when you need it. It is so much less of a bother helping when people need it, than trying to guess when/if someone needs help .... don't ask me how I know - if you do anyway, form being an impatiend patient, and from the other side of the bed as well ;)
This is good news "less pain than before surgery". Rest, rest and heal up! Sending prayers and looking forward to your adventures "with less pain".
