UPDATE 4-9-09 - A Mothers Guilt :)

That’s what Mom calls it. She’s been pressuring me over the last few days (she’s joking, sort of) about how I don’t love her cause I haven’t blogged in a while…she even said, “People will think I died” because I haven’t posted any new news. HAHA! Well, I’d been writing down notes and getting my act together, but I’ve had a sick baby AND have been taking care of Mom and her animals. Things can get a little overwhelming sometimes, which is why I haven’t been able to write it all down ‘til today. I have prepared a few blog entries that I will post today with their correct dates so you can read-up on all the new details in her recovery.

The best news I can possibly share is this: About 3 days ago, Mom woke up and actually felt BETTER. She even got a little weepy as she told me about this little ‘switch’ that seemed to go off in her recovery in a positive way. She felt REAL relief for the first time since the surgery. She has been completely off pain medication for 2 days now. This is truly remarkable considering what she’s been through. She still has one drain tube still in her body which is quite a bit of discomfort and feels that once it’s out she’ll be like brand new again.

Well, that’s all for now! We’ll let you know how things go on Wednesday

  3. Wow! I wanted to hear this for soooo long! Bree sent you something in the mail yesterday. She has worried like crazy, and it's hard to know--being so far away, near Toad Suck, Arkansas.

    As soon as my laptop comes by UPS today, I'll be bringing the little package to you. My computer had a defect. Kinda' new HP. Shouldn't have ever gotten it. HP customer service is the worse!

    I went shopping yesterday for you. I can't go "buying" yet, but have a good idea on what you need. Hey! When are we going to plant a pomegranate tree? I Love You and so Happy that you are getting on top of this whole thing. Too much. lymi Susan
