Good morning! ! I'm much more coherent today than I was last night. Surgery started three hours late yesterday and took an extra hour. :shock: but I'm happy to say I'm cancer free right now!!! Thank heavens! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers and well wishes! They definitely helped.
I will be in the hospital for today yet. The amazing nurses here got me up and walking already. Even though it was shear torture...it was worth it to walk.
Physically I'm hurting but I think the mental part of having the hysterectomy done I'm becoming more at ease with. I mean right now..I have to be. Its all out. But I will say this...there were plenty of crying sessions going on before surgery. I believe it helped. No tears yet today. Woohoo!! It is early though.
So thank you all for being so thoughtful and so supportive.

Good Morning!
So happy to hear you are up and about. The emotional roller coaster has to happen in order to get to the point of acceptance and healing, in every way. Every step will hurt a little less
I truly wish you a quick recovery my dear. Less than 24 hours and you are up and walking?
Damn Right!
you are one badass lady. holy moly. i'd still be unable to type or move a muscle. you are something. i believe this proves that women are indeed tougher than men. we all know they are smarter too.
this is amazing to me. you are walking around and typing and stuff. besides 81, i am the world's biggest baby.
be well, miss. you're kickin ass...bigtime :thumbup:

I was so glad to hear that everything went well. Its terrific that you are up and about already. :geek: :P :P
Not willingly Rick!
I know exactly what you mean. When my first son was born by c-section, they made his mother get up and walk too soon and luckily I was there at the right moment to catch her when she passed out in the bathroom.
Please make sure you have someone with you when you are up
yeah, I know what you mean about "not willingly." when they propped me up and told me to walk, it was like one step and "I need to get back in bed".......right now!

EXACTLY!!! They had me up at midnight last night and said ok you're going to walk. I told the nurse as nice as possible that she was crazy.
So glad you are doing well! I think on your way home you should stock up on some chocolate AND sangria. I will have a toast in your honor tonight Great news!

Sheila, you are amazing. You are strong. Imagine how many others you are inspiring right now. I send healing love and light, with hopes for a fast recovery. I hope you enjoy as many brats, pickles, chocolate and pepsi as you please. Thank you for updating us so soon. HUGS

When I was in the hospital after a hysterectomy, I was convinced that the worst part was having them come in and wake me up constantly to check me. Arrgh! Let me sleep!
I'm so glad you're doing well and going home. Take care of yourself and get all the rest you need.

bravo! you get to go home...must be recuperating very well!

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

Sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realised.
If the thunder cloud passes rain
So let it rain, rain down on he.
So let it be.
So let it be.
