Thank you Jacky,
Bit achy today but doing fine, we'll just have to wait a few days to see the final effects, but I am very optimistic this will work out fine. Hope it lasts along while so I don't have to have it done again too soon. This has been the first flare-up since my last surgery in 2007 and it wasn't real bad yet, caught it very early on so should have a good outcome. Now moving on to the thoracic epi's nest week and the week after, that always takes 2. These are the ones I get every 6 mos. so I know what is coming and am quite used to them. After that one injection in the sciatic joint and I should be good to go for awhile.

I hope it lasts you a good long time too Rose, like forever!

Well this morning, while my eyes were still closed, I could sense daylight. I opened one eyelid and then the other, ah yes daylight it was! I then looked down at my chest and saw it move up and down, so I was breathing as well! Good day so far, I'm alive! While looking at the ceiling my mind is fast at work, ah another revelation, today I turn 64 years old and I woke up!!!! I have 2 new knees and I'm ready to start a whole new year with a new found energy!! Yay, ME!

Norm is taking me out to a new Japanese restaurant in town, so no cooking for me, see I can step away from the stove!
I even plan on fitting in a nap!

Have a great day all and stay well!

Happy Birthday Jacky!!!!!!!!!! I hope you have a very special day today and enjoy your dinner out with Norm tonight and get in some extra cuddle time tonight.

 

[Jacky48]

Thanks Rose, Toni & Debbie, I wish I had you all here to celebrate with, however I guess Norm will do!
We had a great dinner out and had a first of a couple of things, 1) I like Sake and Norm, not so much, I ordered some and it came to us hot, we both loved it, and we shared and order of Green Tea fried ice cream also very good. I guess 2 new things added to your life at 64 is not bad. Next year I'll have to bump it up to 3 new things!

Happy Birthday Jacky. Hope you had a great day!

 

[Jacky48]

Thank you sunshine, I guess I was pretty lucky to live in the eastcoast since we had daylight savings time last night, which means I had and extra hour of beauty sleep. I think it helped, because when I woke up and looked in the mirror, I thought,WOW, I look 20 years younger, then I realized I forgot to turn the light on!
