    Hi there ByGosh and everyone else! Just stopping in to see how everyone is doing these days. I don't get on the computer much anymore either, just too busy with life. But it's a good busy. I just came back from our fall crafter's retreat and couldn't help comparing this one to the one I went...

    Hi ByGosh (and everyone else on the Goshporch), so glad to hear things are going well for you! Patience seems to be the key word in this recovery business, doesn't it? I am doing fine here, just have to remember to pace myself yet or I'm pretty worn out by the end of the day. It's the usual...

    THR It's Super Sqwerl!

    3 month check up today and all of my restrictions have been lifted...whoo hoo! :happydance: The OS said I could do whatever I wanted (within reason) and that the x-rays looked good. He was very happy with the results, but not as happy as I am! Now for an evening with just me and Mr...

    Congratulations Red Shoe! Glad to hear all went well. Forget about getting any good rest in the hospital, that will come after you get home. Welcome to the other side, enjoy your pain meds and use lots of ice!

    My goodness, what a busy page! LOL ByGosh, typically we do produce a lot of our own food. This year we didn't because I just couldn't do most of it. But usually we have chickens for eggs and for meat, raise our own beef, can or freeze veggies, tomatoes, tomato sauce, applesauce, apple cider...

    Hi ByGosh, I am so glad your daughter's surgery went well! Make sure to tell her to take it easy when she gets back to college and give herself time to heal....although young people heal so quickly! I am doing well...I am having an "easy" day today because yesterday I was picking cherry...

    THR zauberflöte's Magic New Hip!

    Hi zauberflöte, just wondering how you were doing this week? I've been on the down track of the roller coaster myself lately, just doing too much I think. Nothing horrid, just aches and pains by afternoon. It's reminder to slow down and let others "do". Which is easier said than done, isn't...

    THR Fever after surgery

    Hi Runaround Sue, yes it was. I'm really surprised they didn't give you one if you have COPD. But just take a slow deep breath, hold it for 2-6 seconds and you'll get the same effect. :)

    THR Fever after surgery

    I ran a low grade fever for about 6 weeks after surgery. As long as you are feeling well and have no signs of infection, I wouldn't worry about it. The visiting nurse who came advised me to make sure I drank plenty of water and use the gizmo the hospital gave me to encourage deep breathing...
